This book was conceptualized as an effort to provide for a Western reader, not familiar with psychology in the East, a broad outline of Ukrainian Psychology within the socio-historical context. Since the 1950s, there were few publications in the US that described psychology in the former Soviet Union (Bauer, 1962; Brozek & Mecacci, 1974; Brozek & Slobin, 1972; Rahman, 1973; Raznor, 1971). Unfortunately, some authors identified psychologists in the Soviet Union as "Russian psychologists." Only two articles (Holowinsky, 1978, 1987) specifically discussed Ukrainian Psychology.
