As a concise history of recent social psychology worldwide (1960s–1970s), it is a unique treatise on the institutional moves and personal relationships of leading social psychologists on both sides of the Atlantic. This sophisticated case study adds a crucial voice to historical and sociological scholarship. It will be particularly useful at graduate and postgraduate levels – in courses on history of psychology in general, and in special seminars on history of social psychology.This book covers the material precisely as I would like, and will be ideal for use in my seminars as core reading.\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eJaan Valsiner, \u003ci\u003eClark University\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"This is a richly documented and vivid account of key events in the formation of an academic discipline. It shows how individuals make history, albeit not in conditions of their own making, by seeking an alternative path for the globalization of knowledge. The book traces the apparent failure of the project of rescuing a social psychology of human beings from the global diffusion of a local USA model (individualist, prescriptive, ethnocentric). Ironically, this 'invisible college' was initiated by a visionary group of US scholars mobilizing allies in Europe, Latin America, and Asia under adverse Cold-War conditions. This is an encouraging book. The project of a universally relevant social psychology will continue to inspire the quest for genuine human understanding.\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eMartin W.
