Edwin Bissell Holt (1873-1946), professor of philosophy and psychology at Harvard from 1901-1918 and visiting professor of psychology at Princeton, 1926-1936. Holt graduated from Harvard in 1896 and received his Ph.D., also from Harvard, in 1901. His mentors at Harvard were William James, Hugo Münsterberg, and Josiah Royce. His doctoral dissertation was in the area of perception, under the direction of Münsterberg. His most famous work was published in 1931, Animal Drive and the Learning Process: An Essay Toward Radical Empiricism, which presented his views on learning and development. Holt's insight into the nature of consciousness connected him not only with behaviorism but also with the emergence of dynamic psychology. Holt took from Freud the word wish and employed it as the unit of his realistic monistic psychology, the relation of response that explains mind. To express this dynamic relation Holt in 1931 adopted the term drive. Scarce. Ships from Dinkytown in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
