✦ Synopsis


This volume is an edited transcription of a June 2001 Witness Seminar organized by the History of Twentieth Century Medicine Group of the Wellcome Trust Center for the History of Medicine at University College, London. Since 1993, Witness Seminars have brought together clinicians, scientists, and historians associated with a particular event or circumstance in twentieth-century medicine. These informal seminars, or collective oral histories, have multiple purposes: to inform those interested in the history of recent medicine and medical science; to supplement existing, published historical records and provide historians with new resources; and to press upon clinicians and scientists the importance of their lives and work, as well as the need for preserving and depositing their personal materials to appropriate archives for current and future historical research.

This volume addresses the creation and research activities of the world-class Medical Research Council's Applied Psychology Unit (today the Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit).
