Publisher Description:
""Psychology: The Hope of Science" is a serious and thoughtful presentation of the point of view that Kimble describes as functional behaviorism. It represents years of study by a senior psychologist who is familiar with the writings of William James and the many psychologists who have succeeded him in attempting to find a basis for unity in psychological theorizing. It should enlist wide reading by psychologists generally and by graduate students in their preparation for careers in psychology."
-- Ernest R. Hilgard, Professor of Psychology, Emeritus, Stanford University

At a time in the history of psychology when many psychologists are troubled by the splintered condition of the field, Gregory Kimble proposes that the diverse perspectives in psychology share ways of thinking that can bring coherence to the discipline.
