A tribute to Helio Carpintero: An 80th birthday celebration.

Vínculo al artículo/Link to this article: DOI: https://doi.org/10.5093/rhp2019a5 One, for me, very happy chance has made the publication of the first issue of the Revista de Historia de la Psicología in which I have acted as Executive Editor to coincide with the 80th birthday of the founder of the Revista, Helio Carpintero. As it is usually said before starting a presentation, “the author does not need a presentation”. In the case of Helio, Professor Emeritus, founder of the Revista de Historia de la Psicología, founder of the Spanish Society of the History of Psychology and President of the Psychology Academy of Spain, this is surely true. But what really deserves a presentation, even in a very summarized and non exhaustive way, is the gigantic scientific and cultural work of Helio. As the protobehaviorist evangelical passage says, “Ye shall know them by their fruits”, so here we offer you in Appendix 1 an extract of the work of Helio. Happy birthday Helio !
