| Summary |
In regard to the major focus of this book, that subset referred to as clinical psychology, McGuire's book illustrates changing attitudes toward clinical psychology that prevailed not only in the Navy, but also in civilian life. Specifically, he chronicles the evolution of Navy clinical psychology from its roots in Titchener's turn-of-the-century brand of experimental psychology, to the present high-level professional roles (in treatment, assessment, intervention, research, and administration) being exercised by today's generation of Navy clinical psychologists, all of which roles are similar to those engaged in by their civilian counterparts.
