Publications

Her 2009 book, an historical critical work on American psychologist and behaviorist, B. F. SkinnerBeyond the Box: B. F. Skinner's Technology of Behavior from Laboratory to Life, 1950s-1970s —was largely based on her doctoral dissertation entitled "Between the science of behavior and the art of living: B. F. Skinner and psychology’s public in mid-20th century America."[1] Beyond the Box was listed as the London Times Higher Education's "Book of the week—July 16-July 23, 2009.[5] A 2018 journal review, described Beyond the Box , as a "much-needed post-revisionist interpretation" of Skinner situating his work within its "social context".[6]

In Pioneers of Psychology, which Rutherford co-authored with Raymond E. Fancher, they examined Sigmund Freud's in-depth interpretation in his book The Interpretation of Dreams, of his own July 23, 1895 dream—Irma's injection.[7][8]Шаблон:Rp
