Résumé
"Edward Tolman changed the face of psychology and cognitive science by his innovative experimentation and big-picture conceptualizations. In Carroll's Purpose and Cognition the reader gets an immensely enjoyable account of Tolman's life and contributions, and a flavor of a time when fears of communism permeated even academic institutions." Paul A. Dudchenko, University of Stirling. "Carroll explicitly makes the connection between the historical Tolman and contemporary neuroscience research, casting this "neobehaviorist" as presaging the so-called "cognitive revolution." This volume is an excellent resource for the historian and an attractive supplement for a variety of psychology courses." David J.
