Ivan Pavlov: References & Edit History
More Articles On This Topic
Additional Reading
Boris Petrovich Babkin, Pavlov: A Biography (1949, reissued 1971), based on personal and professional knowledge of the author, one of Pavlovâs oldest pupils, is the most complete and reliable account until World War I; in dealing with Pavlovâs later life Babkin depends upon other sources, including the memoirs of his widow. Later studies of Pavlovâs life and career are Jeffrey A. Gray, Ivan Pavlov (1980); and Daniel P. Todes, Ivan Pavlov: A Russian Life in Science (2015), which reevaluates Pavlovâs legacy. W. Horsley Gantt, Russian Medicine (1937, reprinted 1978), shows the relation of Pavlov to prominent Russian figures in medicine. Also of interest is W. Horsley Gantt, Lothar Pickenhain, and Charles Zwingmann (eds.), Pavlovian Approach to Psychopathology (1970).
