Offering glimpses into the personal and scholarly lives of 20 giants in the history of psychology, this volume comprises chapters prepared by psychology scholars on a pioneer who had made important contributions in their own area of expertise. Some of the psychologists described may be the teachers of the instructor who could be the users of this title, providing a potential personal connection of the pioneers to the students. A special section provides brief portraits of the editors and authors, containing information about the relationship between the author and the psychologist they have chosen to describe. Utilizing an informal, personal, sometimes humorous style of writing, this publication should appeal to students and instructors interested in the history of psychology.
