The SAGE Handbook of Theoretical PsychologyAuthor(s): Henderikus J Stam, Huib Looren de Jong\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: SAGE Publications Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: SAGE Publications Ltd\nISBN-13: 9781473924918, 978-1473924918\nSynopsis\nThe Sage Handbook of Theoretical Psychologyis a comprehensive resource that explores the foundational and evolving theories within the field of psychology. This handbook emerged from a conversation between the editors, recognizing the absence of a dedicated handbook on psychological theory that covered the wide range of theories. It addresses the implicit role of theory in all aspects of psychology, often overshadowed by the dominant emphasis on empiricism.\n\nThe handbook begins with foundational questions central to contemporary psychology, including chapters on cognitive representations, evolutionary theory, the extended mind thesis, mental causation, feminist psychology and cultural psychology. Each chapter provides an in-depth exploration .
