Bücher von George Thomas White Patrick

""The Psychology of Social Reconstruction"" by George Thomas White Patrick is a seminal work in the field of social psychology. Originally published in 1919, the book explores the psychological factors that contribute to social change and reconstruction. Patrick argues that social change is not simply a matter of political or economic factors, but is deeply rooted in the psychological makeup of individuals and groups. He examines the role of social norms, values, and beliefs in shaping behavior, and how these factors can be harnessed to promote positive social change.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the psychological principles underlying social behavior, including the role of perception, motivation, and emotion. The second part examines the social and cultural factors that contribute to social change, including the influence of religion, education, and mass media. The final part explores the practical implications of these principles for social reconstruction, including strategies for promoting social cohesion, reducing conflict, and building a more just and equitable society.Throughout the book, Patrick draws on a wide range of examples from history, literature, and contemporary society to illustrate his points. He also provides numerous practical suggestions for individuals and groups seeking to promote social change, including the importance of empathy, dialogue, and compromise. Overall, ""The Psychology of Social Reconstruction"" is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the complex interplay between psychology and social change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
