Dieses Buch bietet eine Einführung in die Geschichte der Psychologie, einschließlich ihrer Theorien, Methoden und Anwendungen. Der Begriff "Sozialgeschichte" betont, dass die Geschichte der Psychologie nicht nur rückblickend betrachtet werden sollte, sondern auch die Wechselwirkungen zwischen fachlicher und gesellschaftlicher Entwicklung berücksichtigen muss. Zunächst werden verschiedene Auffassungen zur Funktion und Aufgabe einer Historiographie der Psychologie reflektiert, gefolgt von einem Überblick über die Anfänge und wichtigen Entwicklungen der Disziplin. Im zweiten Kapitel wird die Entwicklung der Psychologie während der nationalsozialistischen Herrschaft behandelt, einer Zeit, die in der Fachgeschichte lange ignoriert wurde. Die wesentlichen inhaltlichen und methodischen Ansätze der Psychologie in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland nach 1945 werden im Kontext wirtschaftlicher und gesellschaftspolitischer Rahmenbedingungen dargestellt. Besonders beleuchtet werden die Geschichte der Sozialpsychologie und der Klinischen Psychologie. Das vierte Kapitel behandelt die Geschichte der Psychoanalyse und enthält einen Originalbeitrag zur Individualpsychologie. Dieses Kapitel unterscheidet sich von den vorherigen, da es nicht eine bestimmte Epoche, sondern eine Strömung exemplarisch behandelt.
