Both those who believe that psychoanalysis is to become the core of an all-embracing psychology and those who expect to find its position within the rest of psychology will welcome this volume. The first will find in it much with which an all-embracing psychology has to cope, the latter an orientation about the remote and recent past of the scientific neighbors among whom it will have to find a place.
Boring’s volume is not just a history of experimental psychology, but also of its matrix—general psychology. Boring taught experimental psychology at Clark University and at Harvard. Boring was strongly influenced by Edward Titchener and is best known for his work in sensory psychology. Boring’s classic History of Experimental Psychology (1929) made him a pioneer historian of the field. Other important works include Physical Dimensions of Consciousness (1933), and his memoirs, Psychologist at Large (1961).
