Martino Fine Books Principles Of Topological Psychology by Kurt Lewin
2015 Reprint Of 1936 Edition. Full Facsimile Of The Original Edition. Not Reproduced With Optical Recognition Software. Topological Psychology May Be Described Non-Technically As An Attempt To Comprehend Human Behavior In Terms Of The Objects Which Are Present, And Of The Relations Among "Events" Taking Place In A Given Environment ("Life-Span"). Lewin Contends That It Provides The Basis For A Truly Scientific Psychology. The Lewin'S Equation, B = Ƒ(P, E), Is A Psychological Equation Of Behavior Developed By Kurt Lewin. It States That Behavior Is A Function Of The Person In Their Environment. The Equation Is The Psychologist'S Most Well Known Formula In Social Psychology, Of Which Lewin Was A Modern Pioneer. When First Presented In Lewin'S Book "Principles Of Topological Psychology," Published In 1936, It Contradicted Most Popular Theories In That It Gave Importance To A Person'S Momentary Situation In Understanding His Or Her Behavior, Rather Than Relying Entirely On The Past.
