Clifford van Ommen and Desmond Painter have brought together various strands of the history of Psychology in South Africa in one volume. The book achieves this by contextualising the first part of the book as Themes that reflect on history in the context of the broad and changing socio-political realities. Selected view or conceptions of local history (the past 100-odd years) are highlighted. This is followed by a discussion of science, racism and 'neutrality' and the effects this had on the landscape of Psychology. A history of critical psychology adds valuable conceptions of economic-political entanglement and oppression-liberation to the history on a necessarily larger global stage. The macro-economic and political dimensions are then linked to the local particular experiences.
