Contextualism in Psychological Research?

"In Contextualism in Psychological Research?, the authors explore the assets of contextualism (such as in discovering hypotheses) as well as its limitations. They then compare contextualism, modified contextualism, and mechanism as approaches to doing science, and they examine their merits in studying closed versus open systems. Aimed at encouraging reasoned dialogue between mainstream psychologists and contextualists, this thought-provoking book is a must for every behavioral scientist."--BOOK JACKET.
