    PSYCHOLOGY
  

*by I***S on Reviewed in India on 1 April 2017*

The most detailed account of the history of psychology...from early philosophers to modern day cognitive scientists. Ideal for anybody having an interest in man's search for the true causes of human behavior.

    An First Exploration of a Difficult Subject
  

*by E***N on Reviewed in the United States on 6 May 2014*

This book is an exploration; i.e. a first delving into a subject that one knows little about. Also for those who think they know something from reading pop explanations of psychology, but never really read the founding manuscripts. It starts with philosophy, because the Greeks were the first to even ask fundamental scientific questions, but it turns out that they weren't all that interested in what went on inside the mind, other than Socrates wanting to know what is the good life, or what is justice. But we're taken on a ride past this material just so the bases are covered. Only in the middle of the 19th century does the author start to get into the meat of the subject, with Wundt and Freud and the behaviorists such as Watson and Skinner. This is as far as I've gotten so far.It's a good read, and almost like a detective novel it has it's twists and turns. Well written; the novice will not get lost; takes time to explain the scientific background of the early days of psychology.  Makes the point that psychological theory is still a lot of guesswork. This is reflected in the book when the author says one thing, only to contradict it a page or two later. I'm halfway through, so can't speak to the end parts, but the author is a admirer of Freud, saying that his theories of the mind have been confirmed in some cases by neuroscientists. An interesting and well-written book and I give it four stars.

    A magnificent foundational work
  

*by M***G on Reviewed in the United States on 3 November 2011*

Today, a junior majoring in both psychology and philosophy thanked me profoundly for the Introductory Psychology course he took with me as a first-year student; Hunt's book was our text. Reading Hunt's book cover to cover, he said, and being held responsible for its entire contents, provided invaluable foundations for all of his subsequent psychology courses--for all of his courses, he then added.  I have long intended to write a review of this book, which I consider a tour de force both in its coverage and representation of psychology as well as in the quality of the writing. As I read it myself, I would again and again think to myself, here is where it would be helpful if Hunt cited such-and-such a study or critique--and, lo, the next paragraph would contain it. I have long been frustrated by introductory-psychology textbooks, which are typically far less authoritative than they should be and are burdened with pedestrian prose and numerous, often unnecessary graphics that are a constant distraction. They are, of course, far more expensive than Hunt's book. Thanks to the Internet, I found it easy enough to prepare PowerPoint presentations with pictures of the various philosophers and psychologists featured in this book, along with illustrations of research apparatus, statistical findings, and so forth. The absence of a test bank was no problem, for given the emphasis on individual facts over broad understandings in most if not all publisher-provided test banks, I've never found them useful. My only reservation is Hunt's brief treatment of and near-dismissive attitude toward human-science psychology; but that approach I was able to introduce and illustrate myself. In sum, this is a book I highly recommend, both for independent readers and as a textbook for Introductory Psychology.
