Donald B. Lindsley, the William James Lecturer on Psychology for 1958-9, will give ten speeches next spring on "new knowledge about the nervous system that has critical importance for psychology."
In addition to the lecture series, Lindsley, a University of California psychologist, will teach a graduate seminar this fall. Known for his analysis of brain waves with electro-encephalograms, he is engaged in research on epilepsy.
After graduating from Wittenburg College, Lindsley held a National Research Council Fellowship at the Medical School and at the Massachusetts General Hospital. During the war he directed a project on the selection and training of radar operators for the Armed Services.
The William James Lectures are given every second year under the auspices of the Department of Philosophy or the Department of Psychology. Earlier James Lecturers have included John Dewey, Bertrand Russell, and J. Robert Oppenheimer '26.
