    Locke and Shaftesbury: foster father and foster son -- Tucker and James: in the same stream of thought -- Freud: writing to reveal and to conceal himself -- Lacan: an ego in pursuit of the ego -- Lewin: is there nothing as practical as a good example? -- Tajfel and Bernstein: the limits of theory -- Jahoda: the ultimate example. "This is a book about the ways that psychologists have used examples in their writing. Unusually for a psychological book, it contains little theory and less methodology; it brings no new sets of data and it surveys no current populations. Instead, the book looks backwards, as I discuss some of my favourite writers of psychology from the past"-- In his new book, Michael Billig uses psychology's pa­st to argue that nowadays, when we write about the mind, we should use more examples and less theory. He provides a series of historical studies, analysing how key psychological writers used examples. Billig offers new insights about famous analysts of the mind, such as Locke, James, Freud, Tajfel and Lewin. He also champions unfairly forgotten figures, like the Earl of Shaftesbury and the eccentric Abraham Tucker. There is a cautionary chapter on Lacan, warning what can happen when examples are ignored. Marie Jahoda is praised as the ultimate example: a psychologist from the twentieth century with a social and rhetorical imagination fit for the twenty-first. More Examples, Less Theory is an easy-to-read book that will inform and entertain academics and their students. It will particularly appeal to those who enjoy the details of examples rather than the simplifications of big theory.
