Book Description Condition: Gut. X; 300 S.; 22,5 cm. Fadengeh. Orig.-Pappband m. illustr. OUmschl. Gutes Ex.; Vorsatz mit Exlibris. - Englisch. - This is a lucid, original, and crucially important reorientation of psychological theory, easily intelligible and compellingly readable to the layman. Going back beyond both Freud and the behaviourists, the author also dismisses those who are still too eager to equate humans and animals. ('Animal experiments to explain human aggression are countless. They principally succeed in demonstrating human ingenuity in. contriving laboratory conditions for animals.') Since we cannot know an animal's mind without anthropomorphic interpretation, there is little use discussing interpretations of how it works. And even comparison is useless for the purposes of psychological theory, since the quantitative difference between the minds of men and of other creatures is so great as to be qualitative. The author suggests most convincingly that feelings of hostility and hatred, and therefore actual violence, are principally aroused by threats, real or imagined, to self-esteem, not by some imaginary reservoir of aggression that needs discharge, but by an endless lust for a rewarding image of oneself.
