520			_aComprehensive yet accessible, a classic survey of the history and systems of psychology – from pre-Socratic philosophers to contemporary contributions from cognitive science and neuroscience is presented. Part I traces psychology's historical foundations from its beginnings to its emergence as a formal discipline in the 1870s. Part II deals with the major twentieth-century systems of psychology. Is ideal for those without an advanced academic background in history, philosophy, or biology.
