Gerrard. The book "Measurement in Psychology: A Critical History of a Methodological Concept" by David C. Gerrard provides a comprehensive overview of the historical development of measurement in psychology, highlighting its significance and limitations. The author critically examines the concept of measurement in psychology, tracing its evolution from ancient times to the present day. He argues that the history of measurement in psychology has been shaped by various factors such as philosophical perspectives, cultural influences, and technological advancements. The book emphasizes the importance of understanding the process of technological evolution and its impact on the field of psychology. The author begins by exploring the origins of measurement in psychology, dating back to ancient Greece and China, where philosophers like Plato and Confucius laid the groundwork for the concept of measurement. He then delves into the development of measurement in the scientific revolution, focusing on the contributions of Galileo and Descartes. The book also discusses the role of measurement in the Enlightenment period, particularly in the works of Kant and Hume. Gerrard critiques the assumptions and limitations of measurement in psychology, pointing out how it has often been used to justify discriminatory practices and reinforce social norms.
