The evolution of psychological discourse is meticulously analyzed, revealing how modern psychology developed its language and concepts. Kurt Danziger delves into the cultural contexts and historical influences that shaped this discipline, arguing that the meanings we attribute to psychological terms are not fixed but rather contingent on societal changes. This work challenges readers to reconsider the foundations of psychological language and its implications for understanding human behavior.
