Förlagets beskrivning
Experts in currently salient subfields of psychology were invited to
prepare informal portraits of the major figures in these subfields. They
provide glimpses of the giants who shaped modern cognitive and behavioural
science, and shed light on their contributions and personalities. There are portraits of such famous figures as Wilhelm Wundt, Hermann
Ebbinghaus, Kurt Lewin, Jean Piaget, Carl Rogers and B.F. Skinner, as well as
chapters on such pioneers as Laurens Hickock, Karl Duncker, Zing-Yang Kuo,
Myrtle McGraw, Henry Nissen and David Krech. The fields touched on in this and
the preceding two volumes cover the range of psychology, cognition and the
behavioural sciences, from sensation and perception, learning and motivation
through biopsychology, psychopathology and developmental psychology to social
psychology, personality, and applied and clinical psychology. As such, all
three volumes of "Portraits of Pioneers in Psychology" should be of interest to
psychologists as well as scholars in related fields. Contemporary specialists in psychology have contributed informal portraits
of early figures in their field for this volume. They shed new light on their
work and personalities. The book aims to provide source materials for students
and their teachers in the history of psychology.
