JAMES GOODWIN

Goodwin, C. James Contrario a lo que ocurre en otros campos del conocimiento, en psicología es indispensable conocer la forma en que ésta ha evolucionado, así como los personajes e ideas que han contribuido a definirla hasta lo que es hoy, si se pretende tener un panorama completo de la disciplina. Esta obra es una excelente introduccion al pensamiento psicologico moderno, que le permitira conocer a los fascinantes hombres y mujeres que contribuyeron a conformar el campo. Gracias a su estilo claro y ameno, podra relacionar el pasado de la psicologia con su rico presente, lo que le permitira tener una comprension mucho mas profunda de las interconexiones entre las diferentes areas que la integran. Incluye una seleccion de los textos originales de diversos pensadores, intercalados con ilustrativos comentarios del autor. Obra de gran utilidad para los cursos de historia de la psicologia, de teorias y sistemas psicologicos y para toda persona interesada en conocer el desarrollo de esta disciplina
