A History of Modern Psychology: The Quest for a Science of the Mind describes the evolution of psychology into the twenty-first century with coverage of recent events and findings that transform our understanding of the past. With a topical approach that presents key thinkers within the context of schools of thought, students are able to see how philosophers, researchers, and academics influenced one another to create the rich and diverse landscape of modern psychology in a global context. In the new Second Edition, the author expands coverage of unsung pioneers (philosopher Al-Balkhi, zoologist Charles Henry Turner, psychiatrist Grunya Sukhareva, and others), revisits the legacy of Francis Galton, explores the Vygotsky boom, and includes new discussion of the impact of Philip Zimbardo′s Stanford Prison Experiment. Through detailed timelines and features such as Looking Back and Looking Ahead, Ludden gives students a deeper appreciation for the transference of knowledge that shaped the field.
