Review of In Memoriam--Rudolf Pintner

Abstract

Review of the book "In Memoriam--Rudolf Pintner," edited by S. Arsenian (see record 1954-00168-000 ). The idea of a memorial volume for Dr. Pintner originated with his many former students, colleagues, and friends and was carried through to completion by Seth Arsenian, Editor and Chairman of the Pintner Memorial Committee. The volume contains a portrait of Pintner (1884-1942), a foreword by the Editor, a tribute prepared for the Faculty of Philosophy of Columbia University by H. L. Hollingworth shortly after Dr. Pintner's untimely death, and an annotated bibliography of Pintner's contributions beginning in 1912. There are 182 annotations in all for the 30 years or an average of six per year. This is an appropriate type of memorial because Dr. Pintner was an indefatigable worker and the quality and quantity of his research articles, books, and tests helped put American psychology in a position of world leadership in the field of mental measurements.
