(2017) Dialogues at the edge of American psychological discourse, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
In his interview Derek Hook argues for a more sustained psychosocial engagement with the temporalities of overlapping and entangled histories that comprise psychological systems of knowledge. Through his scholarship, he observes the complex relationship between human desire and power as it continually forms and returns in the complex flow of political and psychological streams of human experience (Hook 2012a, b, c, 2013c, d). The interview with Hook offer the reader a critical engagement with crucial aspects of psychosocial discourse, including such issues as the racialization of space, remembrance, the body, human identity, oppression, structural violence, and mental illness, in order to explore the psychical mechanisms that undergird and substantiate these modes of reality.
