| Sumario: | All sciences have their paradigmatic figures. Psychology, as the science of human behaviour, also has its gallery of important men. Thus, when looking for those figures that represent the most authentic of psychology in Spain, the name of Luís Simarro (1851-1921) is undoubtedly among the first. A man attentive to the diverse currents of universal thought of his time, medical, social, ethical and cultural problems are the backbone of his thought and motivation in all his work. Thus, the biography of this pioneer of Spanish psychology, written by the renowned psychology historian Helio Carpintero, is well received as an important element to evaluate Simarro's important contributions and will surely become one of the most read and discussed biographies by psychologists not only in Spain but in other latitudes. |
