OSCAR & LUCY

Oscar was one of those people cursed to live in interesting times; indeed times interesting enough for a dozen normal lives. He was the architect of extraordinary - even heroic - deeds yet they are completely forgotten now. He must be counted along with people who shaped the history of the 20th Century. Someone who played a key role in the allied victory in WWII but is now completely unknown. A psychologist who worked with giants someone who made crucial discoveries yet came to distrust the discipline and finally disown it. The history of Oscar's move from brilliant physics graduate to disillusioned professor perfectly illustrates fault lines in the infant discipline of psychology: problems that have remained unsolved for a century.
