In this volume, prominent American and European scholars explore the historical shaping of psychological discourse. Speaking
from several disciplinary standpoints, attention is directed to the ideological, intellectual, political, economic and literary
forces that enter into the cultural construction of mental life. In its explorations, the volume not only challenges the reality
of the taken for granted world of everyday life, but raises fundamental questions concerning the potential of psychological
science to establish historically independent knowledge of mental process. Contributions to the volume treat a variety of
subjects, including the emotions, cognition, the concept of child development, psychotherapy, gender differences and knowledge.
Additional chapters represent first-hand accounts of historical change in psychological movements.
