From the reviews: “For the professional scholar this collection of original essays is a gold mine. This book critically discusses the scientific paradigm of psychology as it developed through two scientific revolutions. There are insights and challenging interpretations of major thinkers in every chapter. For the non-specialist this collection is perhaps also a gold mine. … This is a good, sometimes very technical, academic book. … The audience is primarily scholars in the field.” (Kevin Guilfoy, Metapsychology Online Reviews, Vol. 14 (1), January, 2010)
