Excellent- More about A New Synthesis for Solving the Problem of Psychology: Addressing the Enlightenment Gap

The approach integrates insights from physics, neuroscience, and social constructionist perspectives, providing a comprehensive metapsychological framework for understanding mental behavior patterns in animals and humans.

In this comprehensive exploration of academic psychology, Gregg Henriques delves into the fragmented nature of the discipline and explores the challenges it faces in defining its subject matter. This lack of specificity has hindered psychology's ability to advance our understanding of the human condition. Henriques traces the origins of this problem to a profound gap in our knowledge systems that emerged during the scientific Enlightenment.
To address this issue, this book presents a novel vision for scientific psychology called mental behaviorism. Anchored in a comprehensive metapsychological framework that integrates insights from physics, cosmic evolution, neuroscience, cognitive and behavioral sciences, developmental and complex adaptive systems theory, attachment theory, phenomenology, and social constructionist perspectives, mental behaviorism offers a robust foundation in the philosophy of science.
Drawing on over twenty years of work in theoretical psychology and drawing from a diverse range of literature, Professor Henriques demonstrates how this new approach to scientific knowledge fills in the gaps of our current understanding of psychology and enables us to develop a more holistic and sophisticated way to comprehend animal and human mental behavioral patterns. This work will appeal to students and scholars of general psychology, theoretical psychology, historians, and philosophers of science.
