"[Hubbard and Hegarty] do an excellent job of walking readers through and filling the gaps in an otherwise AndröWestern/Euröcentric (i.e., to say, incomplete and partial) history of Psychology. The format was conceptualized with care, the language is friendly, the content relevant. [...] A terrific and informative read that should be on every critically conscious student's bookshelf."
Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences
"Hubbard and Hegarty have provided a lively and accessible antidote to malestream history."
Alexandra Rutherford, Professor, Department of Psychology, York University, Toronto, Canada
"Katherine Hubbard and Peter Hegarty give students and researchers a much-needed accessible and lively feminist overview of the too-often neglected history of gender studies in psychology as well as pressing theoretical and conceptual issues."
Stephanie A. Shields, Professor Emeritx, Psychology and Women's Gender, The Pennsylvania State University - University Park, US
"This book introduces some of the enduring issues in psychology, but with a contemporary twist, including plenty of rich examples with real people, helping to bring the discipline of psychology to life, warts and all".
Hel Spandler, Professor of Mental Health Studies, University of Central Lancashire, UK
The Feminist Companion series includes books which act as your friends and mentors in book form, supporting you in your studies, especially when things get tough.
This companion offers crucial support for anyone embarking on a feminist journey through Psychology's past and present. It offers a uniquely critical, inclusive and affirmative approach to understanding gender in Conceptual and Historical Issues in Psychology (CHIP). By accessibly presenting knotty and entangled topics, this book promises to ignite your curiosity and get you asking questions.
The book empowers you to build up a feminist toolkit for action and invites you to critically analyse the history of Psychology in order to gain a unique feminist perspective that can help you challenge and address the gender inequalities that remain in the discipline.
Key features include:
Katherine Hubbard is Senior Lecturer at the University of Surrey, UK. Her research and teaching are interdisciplinary, including psychological, historical and sociological components which focus on gender, sexuality and queer studies. She takes an affirmative and inclusive approach and specialises in queer feminist histories of Psychology.
Peter Hegarty is Professor of Psychology at the Open University, UK. He is a social psychologist and historian-psychologist who has often argued that human behaviours deemed intelligent, such as language, scientific thinking, and moral reasoning, are invidiously shaped by gender, sexuality and sex norms beyond psychologists' awareness.
