First published in 1929, the original blurb reads: “This is the first popular history of psychology to be written, and gives the general reader an accurate account of all the more important events in the development of psychological thinking, from Plato and Aristotle, Hippocrates and Galen, to Descartes and Spinoza, and the beginnings of modern psychology, right down to Freud, Adler, and Watson, Gestalt and Hormic psychology and all the various schools of today.”
Today it can be read in its historical context.
This book is a re-issue originally published in 1929. The language used and views portrayed are a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.
Walter Bowers Pillsbury (1872–1960) was one of the first generation of psychologists trained in America and a cooperating editor of The American Journal of Psychology for sixty-four years.
