Description
This set presents an exciting range of works concerning the nature of mental phenomena and their connection with behaviour. For example, Brand Blanshard's Nature of Thought seeks to show that for an adequate theory of ideas and the thought process to be developed, psychology and philosophy must supplement each other; R. S. Peters' edited edition of Brett's classic three volume History of Psychology demonstrates both the development of psychology and exhibits the influence of medical, religious and philosophical thought on theories about man; Guido Villa provides an historical introduction to modern psychology at the turn of the Twentieth Century and explores the origin of its problems and their genetic relation to general philosophy. The books in this set will make fascinating reading for those interested in both fields of psychology and philosophy and their influence on each other.
