Summary: Chock Full of Nuts
Review: Hergenhahn's third edition serves as an excellent text for an undergraduate course in History of Psychology. It reads well and is actually interesting. Psychology is populated with some very interesting characters. This text does a fine job of presenting the significant historical details as well as the ideosyncracies of the characters. Anyone interested in historical foundations of psychology will find this a good pick.

Summary: Verbose
Review: The book, from a historical view point, is concise. However, it is inundated with extraneous information and overstated detail, leaving one yawn-inspired. I am a psyche major and even my professor agreed that this text was rather verbose. It was his first semester instructing a hx of psyche course and he claims he will not be incorporating this text into future sessions.

Summary: All You Want To Know About The Development of Psychology
Review: The first time I read this book I was so delighted. I had borrowed it from the Public Library to help me with writing a paper. Never did I think I would find everything I needed to know about why and how psychology was developed,and the men that advanced science into the various systems/theories of psychology!I am so pleased that I can now own my own copy, through Amazon.com.
