Opis

This new book proposes a way out of the crisis by letting go of the idea that psychology needs 'new' foundations or a new identity, whether biological, discursive, or cognitive. The psychological is not narrowly confined to any one aspect of human experience; it is quite literally 'everywhere'. Drawing on a range of influential thinkers including Michel Serres, Michel Foucault, AN Whitehead, and Gilles Deleuze, the book proposes a strong process-oriented approach to the psychological, which studies 'events' or 'occasions.'
