Excerpt: 

These links are to significant psychological literature that is found on the World Wide Web. They are presented along with my comments and reference to art, politics, and music of the period because I am interested in presenting a cultural context within which psychology developed.

Annotation: 

This site provides links to a wide variety of essays and books that are important landmarks in the history of psychology, browsers can find many of the great works in philosophy such as the debates waged over the mind-body dichotomy. The index page breaks down the works by period and for the 20th century by region. Ancient texts from the Torah to the Bhagavad-Gita to the works of Aristotle are well represented as are enlightenment philosophers. Scholars will find the selection of articles and books from the modern period to be skewed toward physical subjects such as evolution, however, overall the site should be useful to those interested in all aspects of psychology.
