The article remembers 50 years of G.A. Kelly's Personal Construct Psychology (PCP). It uses K. Lewins's distinction between 'Aristotelian' and 'Galileian' modes of thought by a presentation of the PCP. It discusses basic axioms and principles of the PCP (the fundamental postulate and the dichotomy corollary) and presents this theory as an example of the purely Galileian approach which is able to define various concepts used in particular classificatory Aristotelian areas (e.g. mental representation, unconsciousness) and to integrate different methodological approaches (e.g. psychometrical and hermeneutical) with the help of simple formal principles. The study discusses also problems of research in the field of the PCP.
