This four-volume collection picks up the story of theoretical psychology in the 1980s, as it becomes a legitimate form of enquiry in its own right, and follows it as it develops through alternative and critical streams into the newfound fields of 21st-century psychology, like situated cognition, embodied cognition and extended mind theory. This collection can serve as the last word on modern theoretical psychology in its own right, or as a companion to Theoretical Psychology - Classical Readings. Volume One: Contemporary Theoretical Psychology Volume Two: Theory and Method Volume Three: Cognitive Psychology, Cognition, Embodied Cognition Volume Four: Contemporary Human Social, Developmental and Abnormal Psychology
