Due to a sudden, unexpected passing in the family a few years ago and another more recently and my subsequent (mental) health issues stemming from that, I was unable to download this book in time to review it before it was archived as I did not visit this site for several years after the bereavements. This meant I didn't read or venture onto netgalley for years as not only did it remind me of that person as they shared my passion for reading, but I also struggled to maintain interest in anything due to overwhelming depression. I was therefore unable to download this title in time and so I couldn't give a review as it wasn't successfully acquired before it was archived. The second issue that has happened with some of my other books is that I had them downloaded to one particular device and said device is now defunct, so I have no access to those books anymore, sadly.

This means I can't leave an accurate reflection of my feelings towards the book as I am unable to read it now and so I am leaving a message of explanation instead. I am now back to reading and reviewing full time as once considerable time had passed I have found that books have been helping me significantly in terms of my mindset and mental health - this was after having no interest in anything for quite a number of years after the passings. Anything requested and approved will be read and a review written and posted to Amazon (where I am a Hall of Famer & Top Reviewer), Goodreads (where I have several thousand friends and the same amount who follow my reviews) and Waterstones (or Barnes & Noble if the publisher is American based). Thank you for the opportunity and apologies for the inconvenience.

Thank you net galley for allowing me to read this in return for an honest review.
I love self help type books , they always interest me abs this was no different. A good introduction to psychology for beginners

A very useful book for anyone who wants to get a broad understanding of the history of psychology. it's a good grounding and offers a useful jumping off point for further study.

Great book on psych through the ages! I really enjoyed it and learnt things I had forgotten from my degree!

Hi everyone!
This book is so interesting! It's about how psychology developed through the ages. It goes from ancient greece and goes through the main authors until the modern days.
I already knew most things about the first parts of the book, but the modern theories and discoveries were so fascinating!
If you like history and psychology I definitely recommend this book to you!
