"The autobiographies in this volume, and in the series as a whole, can be used to illuminate the history of different areas of psychology. No story is more often told in the history of psychology than the shift from behaviorism to cognitive psychology and to social cognitive approaches. This is a story told both within personality and social psychology and in cognitive neuroscience. Both cognitive psychology and social cognitive approaches want to differentiate themselves from radical behaviorism--once seen as the scientific cutting edge but now seen as excessively reductionistic--and to ally with the study of cognitive processes. Autobiographies can provide a valuable perspective on the network of persons, publications, interpersonal relationships, and departmental politics out of which different traditions in psychology have been and are being formed. Although autobiographies can shed light on some of these processes and events and need to be critically evaluated, much remains unknown"--Preface.

While events transcribed in this manner may suffer from the astigmatism imposed by personal needs and too little perspective, they are enormously enriched by the background factors and events in the writer's life that could only be known directly by him. Thus, if the autobiographer is willing, he can provide the student of history with information that is otherwise virtually unattainable. The chapters in this volume, as in the other volumes in the series, vary substantially in terms of how much they reveal of the subjective determinants and personal experiences surrounding the development of individual careers and psychology itself. At their best, however, they document much that could not have been recovered from the objective record"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2007 APA, all rights reserved) "This book is an attempt to examine the history of psychology through autobiographies of some of the science's early theorists. The author of a recent history of psychology found that it was impossible to get important facts concerning the scientific development of certain individuals except from those individuals themselves. Since a science separated from its history lacks direction and promises a future of uncertain importance, it is a matter of consequence to those who wish to understand psychology for those individuals who have greatly influenced contemporary psychology to put into print as much of their personal histories as bears on their professional careers."
