David Hothersall is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the Ohio State University. He has taught undergraduate and graduate courses on the history of psychology at Ohio State since 1971 and at Denison, Ohio Wesleyan, Meredith, and York University as well. His aim is to show students that psychology's history is interesting, relevant, and at times even exciting. Hothersall has received a number of Distinguished Teaching Awards, including on two occasions Ohio State's university-wide Alumni Award for Distinguished Teaching. Benjamin J. Lovett is Associate Professor of Psychology and Education at Teachers College, Columbia University, where he teaches the history of psychology as well as courses in the school psychology program. Much of his research is on issues related to educational testing and clinical assessment, but his personal passion is the history of psychology. His first book, Testing Accommodations for Students with Disabilities, was published by the American Psychological Association in 2015. He is an active consulting psychologist and works with schools and testing agencies on assessment and disability issues.

'Perfect for graduate and undergraduate students, History of Psychology takes readers on a journey from psychology's roots in philosophy to the field's contemporary complexities. Hothersall and Lovett use history as a vehicle for answering psychology's recurrent questions and offer an inclusive and critical view of a scientific discipline that has grown by leaps and bounds since its early days.' Michael Axelrod, University of Wisconsin–Eau Claire
