Publisher's Synopsis
This is a history book of psychology, but it is not a history textbook of psychology. If, also due to my long professional deformation, its immediate recipient is the student, it is not, however, exclusively. Writing it, I was also thinking of my colleague who wonders about the historical foundations of the discipline he practices; to the man of culture who is curious about how certain concepts could be constituted and developed; but also a little to the educated reader who wants to know how to spend time in Freccia of any color between Milan and Naples or between Bari and Ancona, and may not mind reading about issues that are not easily found in the books he most commonly has available, but who have in any case constituted for their part the paper world in which he lives.
