New Book Release from MIT Press
MIT Press has just announced the release of a book by John C. Malone, Professor of Psychology. It is entitled "Psychology: Pythagoras to Present." According to the MIT Press web site, the book "offers both breadth and depth, an engaging style and rigorous scholarship...."
This 568 page book is the culmination of many years of research and writing.
The book has already received numerous endorsements, including the following:
"John Malone has written a splendid book! A lively, readable and vigorous defense of history. It covers a wide sweep from the early Greeks through Roman and Christian philosophy and the Enlightenment to modern developments such as cognitivism and behaviorism. It is both informative and critical, full of aperçus that clobber their targets with force and grace. I hope that Malone's book may do for psychology what Bertrand Russell\'s historical opus did for philosophy. Read it."
—J. E. R. Staddon, Department of Psychology and Neuroscience, Duke University
