About the Author

Neal E. Miller (1909-2002) was a professor of psychology at Yale University and professor and head of a laboratory of Physiological Psychology at the Rockefeller University. He is a past president of the American Psychological Association, an elected honorary fellow of the British Psychological Society, and chairman of the National Research Council Committee on Brain Sciences. He is co-author of four books and author of many articles.

Reviews

Review on the original single volume work Selected Papers -Neal Miller is one of a very few who have made truly significant contributions to the elucidation of the mechanisms that control behavior. Thus this collection of his writings will be of great interest not only to professional workers in experimental, physiological, and clinical psychology but to those in other disciplines who are particularly interested in behavior. A number of facets of his extraordinarily diverse research career emerge from the selected papers.- --Peter L. Carlton, Science
