| Description: |
This volume addresses tensions that exist between two opposing approaches to psychology, the experimental/empirical and the cultural/humanistic approach. The author analyzes a series of writings by and about Fred Newman, the controversial American philosopher and psychotherapist. |
| Synopsis: |
More than an academic critique, Performing Psychology offers a new methodology for understanding human life. Arguing that both psychological activity and its study are essentially performance, Neuman and his colleagues expose the myths of mainstream psychology and the limitations of its postmodern challengers. |
