Description

Psychologists and philosophers have assumed that psychological knowledge is knowledge about, and held by, the individual mind. This volume challenges these views. It argues that bodies of psychological knowledge are social institutions like money or the monarchy, and that mental states are social artefacts like coins or crowns. Martin Kusch takes on arguments of alternative proposals, shows what is wrong with them, and demonstrates how his own social-philosophical approach constitutes an advance. We see that there exists a substantial natural amount of philosophical theorizing, a body of work that tries to determine the nature and structure of folk psychology. An introduction to the workings of constuctivism, the text is also an introduction to the history of psychology and the recent philosophy of mind.

Author Biography:

Martin Kusch is Lecturer in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Cambridge. He is also the author of Psychologism, Foucault’s Strata and Fields and Language as Calculus vs. Language as the Universal Medium.
