ABSTRACT
Over the course of his enormously productive career, which spans more than fortyfive years. Professor Hans J.Eysenck's creative genius has enlightened our understanding of many different areas of psychological science. The Centennial Psychology Series, which was established to commemorate the founding of Wilhelm Wundt's laboratory at Leipzig in 1879 and scientific psychology's one-hundredth anniversary, invited distinguished contributors to psychological theory and research to develop a volume that included twelve to fifteen of their most important papers. For his Centennial volume, the papers selected by Eysenck (1982) as representing what he considered to be his most significant contributions were in the following four general areas: personality, behaviour therapy, genetics and social psychology.
