The proper study of psychology

Article Abstract:

The proper subject matter of psychology has been a subject of discussions. It was thought to be the soul, mind, or body. For Titchener, psychology is all about mental content, his student, Boring, also had a different view. Edward Reed, on the other hand, argued that the proper subject of psychology is how human beings encounter the world. It evolves on how humans discover, use, control, talk, and think about the world.

Boutros Boutros and the weight of the world

Article Abstract:

Boutros Ghali has been impressive so far in his attempt to streamline bureaucracy and force UN members to think in practical terms. World economic aid and peacekeeping forces are expensive, and the UN has traditionally been seriously underfunded. Boutros Ghali does not want to send troops out to do a job for which they are not equipped.

Somewhere Man

Article Abstract:

A personal narrative is presented describing the experiences of living outside the United States. The self-confesssed die-hard globetrotter feels that life as a foreigner is easy because you always seem exotic and different, and you enjoy a form of diplomatic immunity because you seem somehow removed from local reality.
