Making Place for a Comparative Scientist: Robert Mearns Yerkes at Harvard, 1902-1917

Abstract

During the first decade of this century, Robert Meams Yerkes struggled to make a place for himself within Harvard University's Division of Philosophy as a comparative scientist. From the perspective of a young assistant professor, Yerkes'diary and letters permit a glimpse into the ail-too familiar struggle of establishing career and family.
