Book Description
This book represents the first attempt to historicise and theorise appeals for ‘relevance’ in psychology. It argues that the persistence of questions about the ‘relevance’ of psychology derives from the discipline’s terminal inability to define its subject matter, its reliance on a socially disinterested science to underwrite its knowledge claims, and its consequent failure to address itself to the needs of a rapidly changing world. The chapters go on to consider the ‘relevance’ debate within South African psychology, by critically analysing discourse of forty-five presidential, keynote and opening addresses delivered at annual national psychology congresses between 1950 and 2011, and observes how appeals for ‘relevance’ were advanced by reactionary, progressive and radical psychologists alike. The book presents, moreover, the provocative thesis that the revolutionary quest for ‘social relevance’ that began in the 1960s has been supplanted by an ethic of ‘market relevance’ that threatens to isolate the discipline still further from the anxieties of broader society. With powerful interest groups continuing to co-opt psychologists without relent, this is a development that only psychologists of conscience can arrest.

Book Description
The COVID-19 pandemic brought about a sudden transition from traditional face-to-face instruction to online and blended learning. The repercussions of this seismic change have left an indelible mark on students, particularly those thrust into the challenging realm of fully engaging in online learning during this tumultuous period. As we navigate the delicate landscape of higher education post-pandemic, a critical gap in scholarly literature becomes glaringly apparent; there is a scarcity of focused works addressing the nuanced well-being of students in this new academic reality. Mental Health Crisis in Higher Education is a groundbreaking book that boldly steps into this void, offering a comprehensive and meticulously researched examination of the challenges faced by students transitioning from secondary to higher education amid the pandemic. By delving into stressors, coping mechanisms, and the intricate web of factors influencing emotional, psychological, and physical well-being, the book is an invaluable resource for academics, researchers, and institutions seeking to understand and address the multifaceted dimensions of student well-being.
