Reflections on Ecological Psychology: An interview with Harry Heft 2. The social constitution of ecological psychology in the Netherlands 3. Contrary imaginations: Radical Empiricism or Pragmatism? 4. Perception and problem solving 5. Conceiving the environment from a developmental perspective: Revisiting Roger G. Barker’s comparison of Bobby Bryant and Raymond Birch 6. Agency in behavior settings: A mindshaping perspective on ecological psychology 7. Behavior settings, enabling constraints, and the naturalization of social norms 8. Values, affordances, and agency: Giving Heft to ecological accounts 9. Young people’s responses to the Earth’s affordances of regeneration 10. Humanizing Ecological Psychology: Heft’s incorporation of the sociohistorical into perceiving and acting 11. Understanding the child’s environment 12. Towards a psychological ecologyReviewsFinally: Harry Heft is getting the recognition he deserves. His careful work has quietly inspired generations of researchers interested in the history and philosophy of psychology, especially pragmatism and the ecological approach. Many of us, myself included, found reading Heft's 2001 masterpiece Ecological Psychology in Context to be a transformative experience. That work made the ideas of James Gibson and Roger Barker seem less strange and foreign by providing historical precedent in the late work of William James. This book collects brand new essays by some of those who were inspired by Heft's philosophical and historical analyses, along with a delightful interview with Heft and his response to the collected essays. The interview alone is worth the price of admission and the rest of the collection is a crucial record of the mark Heft has left. Highly recommended. - Prof. Anthony Chemero, University of Cincinnati, USA Finally: Harry Heft is getting the recognition he deserves.
