      Eight contributions examine the discrepancies between the traditional ideals and the present reality of West German universities, and their impact on the universities of a unified Germany. The first half of the text describes universities in 19th- and 20th-century Germany, and the influence of Wilhelm Von Humboldt. The second half addresses the future, and the relationship between education and the politics of its time. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

      This is the first full-length historical study of Gestalt psychology--an attempt to advance holistic thought within natural science. Holistic thought is often portrayed as a wooly-minded revolt against reason and modern science, but this is not so. On the basis of rigorous experimental research and scientific argument as well as on philosophical grounds, the Gestalt theorists Max Wertheimer, Wolfgang Köhler and Kurt Koffka opposed conceptions of science and mind that equated knowledge of nature with its effective manipulation and control. Instead, they attempted to establish dynamic principles of inherent, objective order and meaning in current language, principles of self-organization in human perception and thinking, in human and animal behavior, and in the physical world. The impact of their work ranged from cognitive science to theoretical biology and film theory. Based on exhaustive research in primary sources, including archival material cited here for the first time, this study illuminates the multiple social and intellectual contexts of Gestalt theory and analyzes the emergence, development and reception of its conceptual foundations and research programs from 1890 to 1967.

      Geschichte der deutschen Psychologie im 20. Jahrhundert
    • Das Jahr 1990 markiert eine epochale Wende in der Geschichte der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft. Die Leitung der MPG nahm an der Gestaltung der Wissenschaftspolitik der deutschen Vereinigung zugunsten der Ausweitung des bundesdeutschen Wissenschaftssystems in den Osten aktiv teil. Danach kam es zu einer einmaligen Expansion im Osten unter geringer Beteiligung ostdeutscher Wissenschaftler: innen und auch zu präzedenzlosen Kürzungen im Westen. Mitchell G. Ash analysiert die Geschichte der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft im Prozess der deutschen Vereinigung als Beispiel des Zusammenspiels von Wissenschaft und Politik als Ressourcen füreinander in politischen Umbruchzeiten.
