Instead, psychology is portrayed as a network of scientific and professional practices embedded in specific contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Pickren and Rutherford want to provide a history of psychology that describes how culture, race, ethnicity, and gender have influenced psychology's development within social, political, and economic contexts. They intend to provide a postmodern, social constructionist treatment of psychology’s history that is accessible to undergraduate students. In a number of other ways Pickren and Rutherford do a good job of providing an original description of the field’s social and historical contexts. They do a credible job of providing an alternative version of our discipline's history that students and professors ready for a postmodern textbook will find novel and instructive.\" (\u003ci\u003ePsycCRITIQUES\u003c\/i\u003e, September 15, 2010)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 1 ORIGINS OF A SCIENCE OF MIND 3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 2 EVERYDAY LIFE AND PSYCHOLOGICAL PRACTICES 24\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 3 SUBJECT MATTER, METHODS, AND THE MAKING OF A NEW SCIENCE 42\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 4 FROM PERIPHERY TO CENTER: CREATING AN AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGY 71\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 5 THE PRACTICE OF PSYCHOLOGY AT THE INTERFACEWITH MEDICINE 94\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 6 PSYCHOLOGISTS AS TESTERS: APPLYING PSYCHOLOGY, ORDERING SOCIETY 118\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 7 AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL SCIENCE AND PRACTICE BETWEEN THE WORLD WARS 148\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 8 PSYCHOLOGY IN EUROPE BETWEEN THE WORLD WARS 178\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 9 THE GOLDEN AGE OF AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGY 208\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 10 INTERNATIONALIZATION AND INDIGENIZATION OF PSYCHOLOGY AFTERWORLD WAR II 238\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 11 FEMINISM AND AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGY: THE SCIENCE AND POLITICS OF GENDER 262\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 12 INCLUSIVENESS, IDENTITY, AND CONFLICT IN LATE 20TH-CENTURY AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGY 288\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 13 BRAIN, BEHAVIOR, AND COGNITION SINCE 1945 310\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53733848416599,"sku":"9780470276099","price":99.86,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/a-history-of-modern-psychology-in-context-9780470276099","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
