There is a famous saying that is running through my head cuz i can't find
the specific citation, and I am using it in a review:

something like

with the advent of Behaviorism, Psychology "lost its mind"....

2. When/reference???

mary

In societies where modern conditions of production prevail, all of life presents itself as an immense accumulation of "spectacles". Everything that was directly lived has moved away into representation. - Guy Debord, "The Society of the Spectacle" c 1967
