In this very accessibly-written book, Chung and Hyland break new
ground for an introductory text by referring in some detail to both
western and eastern philosophical traditions in tracing the
intellectual history of psychology. They are committed to the idea
that psychology has always been done in dialogue with cultural
understandings about the nature of the person. The authors cover a
wide sweep of current psychological thought, showing the
contemporary diversity of the discipline. I look forward to using
this book with my students – itʼs a very engaging
invitation to an area which has previously lacked attractive
curtain-raisers.
