Causality is the focal point reviewed across disciplines. Using diverse models, the book approaches unifying psychology as an ongoing project that integrates genetics, experience, evolution, brain, development, change mechanisms, and so on. The book includes in its integration free will, epitomized as freedom in being. It pinpoints the role of the self in causality and the freedom we have in determining our own behavior. The book deals with disturbed behavior, as well, and tackles the DSM-5 approach to mental disorder and the etiology of psychopathology. Young examines all these topics with a critical eye, and gives many innovative ideas and models that will stimulate thinking on the topic of psychology and causality for decades to come. It is truly integrative and original.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong the topics covered:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModels and systems of causality of behavior.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNature and nurture: evolution and complexities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEarly adversity, fetal programming, and getting under the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree will in psychotherapy: helping people believe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCausality in psychological injury and law: basics and critics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Neo-Piagetian\/Neo-Eriksonian 25-step (sub)stage model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnifying Causality and Psychology appeals to the disciplines of psychology, psychiatry, epidemiology, philosophy, neuroscience, genetics, law, the social sciences and humanistic fields, in general, and other mental health fields.
