Hothersall and Lovett's History of Psychology is a lively survey of the evolution of the field from 1850 to the present. Built around the lives of fascinating thinkers who proposed bold new ways of studying human behavior and mental processes, and telling the true stories behind their famous experiments, this textbook provides students with an intimate understanding of how psychology came to be what it is today. Thoroughly updated with the latest historical scholarship, the fifth edition includes greater focus on the contributions of women and people of color, and a new chapter on the late twentieth century and the cognitive revolution. It also features updated pedagogy such as chapter discussion questions and unique archival photographs, while instructor resources include a test bank, lecture slides, and an instructor manual.

This book is the first to consider the relationships between the Open Science and DEI (social responsiveness) movements in psychology. These two movements sometimes work smoothly together, but are also sometimes in tension. They can differ in their understanding of what science is and how psychology should behave as a science. This volume aims to shed light on the trade-offs inherent in trying to search for truth while promoting social justice. It covers the history and philosophy of these two movements as background for an exploration of the tensions between them. This volume moves beyond the conflict, acknowledging the conflicts but also showing the way toward a unified field of psychology. It will appeal to researchers and students, as well as those who train them. Exploring the relationships between these two movements will be enlightening to scholars as well as practitioners.
