The Way of Psychology: Nothingness and Relatedness in the Intellectual History of Psychology

Joseph Anthony Narciso Z. Tiangco

4.9/5 (10004 ratings)

Description:In an age when the hegemony of scientific thinking and humanity’s passionate study of the self are closely intertwined, The Way of Psychology provides an engaging standpoint with which to re-understand the discipline of psychology, as a science and profession. Psychology has always been understood as an intellectual by-product of Western culture, its intellectual history and brilliant minds in the West whose intellectual musings are etched in the annals of psychology’s intellectual development. And yet, it is also the predisposition of the West to intellectualize psychology which has left the impression that it has become a discipline detached from its own sense of humanity. Provocatively and sensitively, the book re-examines the history and systems of psychology, not with the goal of enumerating the many historical figures, dates, and facts that have shaped the discipline. Rather, it is done with the desire to unearth an often overlooked reality; the way of psychology that is not glossed over by scientific acumen but by spiritual wisdom in the guise of Asian philosophy. Much can be learned in re-understanding psychology’s intellectual development in light of an East-West comparative analysis of psychology in the postmodern context while at the same time problematizing psychology’s study of the self within the framework of the Kyoto-ha Tetsugaku and Daoism. Tiangco challenges students and practitioners of psychology to seek out the way of psychology that dispels the myth of the linearity of intellectual progress. More so, he argues that wisdom has a rightful place in the practice of psychology, as a science and profession. Ex Oriente Lux, this book is a resonant work in providing an East-West standpoint in examining the limits of scientific reasoning in the on-going intellectualization of the self and in re-visioning psychology as a spiritual human science.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
