Books in the Psychology Library Editions: History of Psychology series

This volume, originally published in 1979, commemorates the centennial of experimental psychology as a separate discipline - dated from the opening of Wilhelm Wundt's laboratory at Leipzig in 1879. Writing in a lively style suitable for non-specialists, the authors provide a general introduction to the history of experimental psychology.

Originally published in 1983, the purpose of this book was to discuss the relations between philosophy and developmental psychology, as those relations existed over the course of the history of the discipline and as they existed at that time.

Originally published between 1928 and 1987, the volumes in this set provide an interesting look back at how psychology has developed as a discipline and some of the problems it has encountered along the way.
