is a unique collection of in-depth conversations with a selection of the most influential psychologists working today, conducted at the end of a decade that shook psychological science. They provide insights into the controversies at the heart of contemporary psychology, revealing a clash of visions of what psychological science is all about and what its future holds. They also discuss their own greatest achievements and their challenges in the field.Those interviewed include Noam Chomsky, Elizabeth Loftus, Daniel Kahneman, Jerome Kagan, Michael Posner and eleven others who have shaped psychology as we know it today and who represent a wide range of specializations, from research to mental health practice, mainstream psychology to critical psychology and neuroscience to the Open Science movement. They are candid on the crisis in psychology and explore its causes, consequences and how to overcome it. The book sheds light on who these great psychological thinkers are as people – their lives, careers, and the experiences that shaped their worldview. Researchers, practitioners, students, science writers and anyone with an interest in psychology, science and the history of ideas will enjoy the insights provided here.  weiterlesen
