Personality and Psychotherapy John Dollard and Neal E. Miller Because they aim at nothing less than the creation of a psychological base for a general science of human behavior, Dollard and Miller have brought together three great traditions in this remarkable study: Freudian psychoanalytic practices ; the exact scientific experimentalism applied by Pavlov, Thorndike, and Hull to learning processes; and modern social scientific exploration of conditions under which we begin to learn. With brilliance and precision, they have achieved a vital combination of these elements into a new foundation upon which psychology, the social sciences and humanities have since built.
