Description: This book offers a historical introduction to the remote origins of psychology and is the first book in a series on the history of the subject. Combining a deep history approach with the study of ancient civilisations it places psychology in a historical and global context using rigorous academic research. This book begins by separating the Greek components of psychology psyche and logos in order to trace their histories separate and together through the global Neolithic and Bronze Ages. The author develops a toolkit by deconstructing the writing of history modern psychology and analysis of culture and by introducing theories from neuroscience and cultural psychology that can be tested against the data. He then takes readers on a journey back in time from the borders of our current climatic envelope (the Holocene) towards the present through Ancient Iraq Egypt Israel and China. Each chapter deepens the reader's understanding of psychology in its global context outside the boundaries of Western culture. In so doing the book initiates a post - colonial re - narration showing that the story of psychology is wider and deeper than many contemporary origin stories suggest. Presented in an accessible manner this is an excellent resource for students of psychology philosophy history linguistics archaeology and anthropology as well as general readers who want to learn more about the origins of this fascinating subject.
