Description
By Kristine M. Krapp
Eight freelance writers (some with science specialties) worked under the direction of editor Krapp, with the guidance of five advisers from high school and university faculties to select appropriate entries and prepare this two-volume reference for high school students and lower division college students. A historical overview of the field of psychology, a chronology, and a glossary accompany thorough profiles of 20 psychologists and their ideas. The profiles cover biography, theories, historical context, critical response, and how the theories are used; sidebars contain information on related theories or other psychologists close to the subject of the entry. Small b&w photo portraits are included. Indexing is thorough. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
