Yerkes' Rabbit and Career: From Trivial to more Significant Matters

Frederick J. Wertz

Fordham University, New York

After acknowledging Dewsbury's (1995) correction of the historical record concerning Yerkes' childhood pet, the revision is shown to have no bearing on the thesis that the peculiar relation of psychologist and rat entails a modem disciplinary project that threatens human freedom. More significant than the matter of Yerkes' childhood pet is the extent to which his promotion of the psychology of animal behavior and his military activities in World War I contributed to this trend.
