Description
Summary:Presents reflections on Josef Maria Brožek's contributions toward the development of psychology in the nation of Spain. The author recounts that Brožek became one of our most enthusiastic supporters and advisors. He also encouraged us to go ahead with the project of the Revista de Historia de la Psicologia, a journal on the history of psychology that we had created in 1980 at the University of Valencia. This journal, now entering its 25th year of existence, offers an average of 500 pages per year--in Spanish or English--devoted to its topic. It is the only living journal on the specialty published in Spanish, and it includes most of the world's specialists among its authors. From the very first issue, Brožek became a member of its advisory committee, and a Festschrift was published in his honor in 1984 (Revista de Historia de la Psicologia, Vol. 5, No. 1-2). This volume turned out to be a true international monograph on the history of psychology, as was only natural considering the many connections held by Brožek at the time.
