Associate Professor Psychology
Book Title
Principles of Psychology
Book Description
This book inspired me with its lucid writing and combination of ideas from philosophy and the burgeoning field of psychology. James’ writings on emotion have been influential for me, as have his considerations of habit and will, and of the challenges of moving beyond one’s viewpoint to model the mind. Overall, the book is a classic for psychologists and philosophers. As a graduate student, reading it reminded me of the power of interdisciplinary work that has informed my approach since.
