This volume presents current thought and criticism on evolutionary epistemology -- the evolution of knowledge and knowing. As the theme of the fourth T.C. Schneirla Conference held at Wichita State University, evolutionary epistemology was examined from several diverse areas of study including comparative, developmental, physiological, and cultural psychology as well as philosophy. Theories of the Evolution of Knowing addresses alternatives to the genetic determinism inherent in Donald Campbell's concept of genetic epistemology. The concept of integrative levels is shown to offer a parsimonious, non- reductionist approach to the development of "knowing" as a human capacity. - Inbunden, Engelska, 1998

Are bird songs learned or genetically programmed?How do animals attract the opposite sex?How does play affect development?How do wolves signal surrender?Which animals have been observed using tools?Do squirrels ever forget food caches?How do bees differentiate between hives?Can some animals count?Examines the state of the art-and its evolutionExploring the full range of animal behavior studies, this authoritative Handbook covers the current state of the art as well as important historical developments in the field since its beginnings over a century ago. It features original essays by comparative psychologists and other animal behavior researchers in experimental psychology who examine and report on the latest research and discoveries in the areas of evolution, development, and species-typical behavior.Discusses all other major approaches to animal behaviorThe Handbook is the only major reference work to offer a unique psychological perspective of the field. It is also the only one to provide numerous examples of other major approaches to animal behavior, and to discuss and compare them. Arranged in eight major sections for quick and efficient information retrieval, the Handbook:Covers the history and philosophical foundations of comparative psychology, spotlights key figures, and provides international perspectives.Surveys all the important concepts, issues, and theoretical developments in the field.Addresses the latest methodology, focusing on apparatus, research design, statistical techniques, and zoo research.Deals with physiological correlates of behavior, hormones, pheromones, sensation and perception, and sleep.Provides intensive examinations of the behavior of a wide variety of species and groups of animals, from cephalopods and insects to wolves and primates.Covers the key psychological processes of learning and development of behavior, a major emphasis of the field that distinguishes it from other approaches.Treats the full range of functional behaviors by which individuals and species ensure survival and reproductive success.Analyzes cognitive processes, describing complex patterns of behavior in terms of information processing and use.Ideal as a source book for students in comparative psychology, ethology, sociobiology, anthropology, and evolutionary psychology, the Handbook is also a handy reference for scientists working in these fields and for the lay person who wants to understand animal behavior. - Inbunden, Engelska, 1995

First Published in 1995. Behavioral Development is Volume 1 in the Research and Developmental and Comparative Psychology series - dedicated to honour the contributions of T. C. Schneirla. This volume represents the substantive content of the Fifth T. C. Schneirla Conference, held in November of 1989. The volume is divided into three parts: the significance of the intensity of the adequate stimulus; the process of development and the concept of integrative levels. Schneirla is still recognized as one of the foremost theoreticians in comparative psychology, and the rebirth of interest in comparative psychology is evident. - Inbunden, Engelska, 1996

First Published in 1997. The papers in this volume on invertebrate behaviour, predominantly ant behaviour, are presented as a tribute to T. C. Schneirla and to his theoretical and experimental contributions to our understanding of the development and evolution of behaviour. His emphasis on development also brought to the fore new questions, many of which are addressed in this volume. Advances in technical instrumentation for research will be useful in reformulating these old questions in new and significantly constructive programs for responsible research. The theoretical contributions of Schneirla will continue to prove an important facilitation of those new research techniques. - Häftad, Engelska, 2008

This innovative and thought-provoking book integrates both new, authored material and reprints of existing literature that, together, provide a compelling narrative that reveals the fatally flawed science associated with genetic reductionist accounts of human behavior and development.Through an interdisciplinary lens, it illuminates the dynamic nature of human development, empowering readers to question established notions, and embrace the complexity of our potential. Across the book, the work of top-tier scientists, from developmental, comparative, educational, and biological science illuminates theory and research converging on the conclusion that the multiple egregiously flawed work of genetic reductionists should be expunged from research pertinent to human development. The book challenges the prevailing reductionist narratives and their application to social policies, programs, and uses in media. Theoretically based and empirically rigorous, this multidisciplinary approach to human development will shine a light on the inequities in individuals or groups that suggest that specific genes do not enable them to succeed in life.The Heredity Hoax invites graduate programs and advanced undergraduate courses on human development, human potential, epigenetics, and more to delve into the intricate interplay between genes, environment, and personal growth. This will also serve as an unimpeachable source of evidence for researchers, educators, and social policymakers. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2025

“Gary Greenberg has become the Dante of our psychiatric age, and the DSM-5 is his Inferno.” —Errol Morris Since its debut in 1952, the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders has set down the “official” view on what constitutes mental illness. Homosexuality, for instance, was a mental illness until 1973. Each revision has created controversy, but the DSM-5 has taken fire for encouraging doctors to diagnose more illnesses—and to prescribe sometimes unnecessary or harmful medications.Respected author and practicing psychotherapist Gary Greenberg embedded himself in the war that broke out over the fifth edition, and returned with an unsettling tale. Exposing the deeply flawed process behind the DSM-5’s compilation, The Book of Woe reveals how the manual turns suffering into a commodity—and made the APA its own biggest beneficiary. - E-bokPDF, Engelska, 2013
