The Concise Evolution of Contemporary Psychology provides a succinct depiction of the progression of this lively domain―from initial trailblazers of psychological hypothesis to state-of-the-art modern applications. Within this revised third edition, eminent scholar Ludy Benjamin examines the notable figures, ideas, and streams of thought that have molded modern psychology. Captivating and approachable storytelling furnishes readers with historical and disciplinary background to contemporary psychology and incites further exploration of the topics and personalities introduced. This publication furnishes a firm fundamental understanding of psychology’s history, addressing vital domains encompassing pre-scientific psychology, anatomy and psychophysics, initial schools of German and American psychology, and the roots of applied psychology, behaviorism, and psychoanalysis. Scrutiny of twentieth-century and contemporary advancements, including the rise of clinical and cognitive psychology, ascertains a comprehensive panorama of the domain.

The writer intertwines biographical insights on extensively recognized trailblazers such as Carl Jung, Wilhelm Wundt, and B.F. Skinner with less renowned figures including E.B. Titchener, Mary Calkins, and Leta Hollingworth. This individual-centric technique to history enables readers to grasp the theories, studies, and practices of the individuals who established the groundwork for contemporary psychology.
