How We Think And Psychology (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781425482015)

""How We Think And Psychology"" by John Dewey is a classic work in the field of psychology and philosophy that explores the nature of human thought and the ways in which it shapes our understanding of the world around us. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the process of thinking itself, and the second part examining the role of psychology in understanding human thought.In the first part, Dewey explores the different types of thinking, including reflective thinking, which involves careful analysis and evaluation of ideas, and impulsive thinking, which is more instinctive and reactive. He also discusses the importance of context in shaping our thinking, and the ways in which our experiences and cultural background can influence the way we perceive and interpret information.The second part of the book delves into the field of psychology, examining the different approaches that have been taken to understanding human thought and behavior. Dewey critiques the traditional behaviorist approach, which focuses solely on observable behavior, and argues for a more holistic approach that takes into account the internal mental processes that underlie our behavior.Throughout the book, Dewey emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and reflection in shaping our understanding of the world, and argues that a deeper understanding of the nature of human thought is essential for creating a more just and equitable society. ""How We Think And Psychology"" is a thought-provoking and insightful read for anyone interested in the nature of human thought and behavior.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
