Recenzii
“I recommend Araujo’s book as an excellent theoretical and historical study. … It is very relevant to contemporary discussions of psychology in the face of the discipline’s increasing fragmentation, lack of reflection, and historical amnesia.” (Gordana Jovanović, Theory & Psychology, 2018)
“I highly recommend this important book. For those involved in science education, especially those concerned with recent debates about teaching the ‘Nature of Science’ (NOS), this will be a challenging and provocative work. … For psychologists, the book may signal a new appreciation for one of the giants of our field.” (Ryan D. Tweney, Science and Education, Vol. 26, 2017)
“Wundt and the Philosophical Foundations of Psychology is the most internalist history that I have ever read, not just in the history of psychology but also in the history of science. … For Wundt scholars, it’s required reading. For historians of early psychology, it’s useful … .” (Thomas Hardy Leahey, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 61 (26), June, 2016)

Textul de pe ultima copertă
This book reassesses the seminal work of Wilhelm Wundt by discussing the history and philosophy of psychology. It traces the pioneering theorist’s intellectual development and the evolution of psychology throughout his career. The author draws on little-known sources to situate psychological concepts in Wundt’s philosophical thought and address common myths and misconceptions relating to Wundt’s ideas. The ideas presented in this book show why Wundt’s work remains relevant in this era of ongoing mind/brain debate and interest continues in the links between psychology and philosophy.
