"Now Witkowski has written a new book, to be published later this year, Psychology Led Astray: Cargo Cult in Science and Therapy,
that is certain to ruffle a lot of feathers. He compares psychology to
cargo cults. He says, 'the cargo cult phenomenon is virtually absent in
physics, chemistry, and mathematics, yet it runs rampant in both
psychology and sociology.' He uncovers cargo cult practices in
psychology, unmasking therapies that are devoid of science, dangerous,
and even cruel, especially those directed at children."
