This volume presents the life and work of 62 prominent Indian psychologists with each chapter illustrating their life and work. The nature and framework of each chapter is uniform, encompassing a brief biography, of the psychologists, their affiliations with various institutions and most prominently, their contributions to the field of psychology.

The major highlight of the book is the collection of work of Indian scholars recorded in the form of research articles, book chapters and books, some of which were even used to develop models by Western scholars, but never received their due credit. The research activities conducted at universities and institutions have been the backbone of scientific progress and they are also highlighted here, especially the contributions of the Research Designs and Standards Organisation (RDSO), Lucknow, Defence Institute of Psychological Research (DIPR), Delhi, and Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS), Mumbai.

This is the first book of this kind that chronologically presents the life and work of Indian psychologists. It will be useful to students of Psychology, Behavioural Sciences, Sociology and Social Work. It will also be an invaluable reference text for those working on the history of psychology.
