| Summary |
"This book attempts to distinguish the various meanings of the word unconscious which have been used, and to describe and differentiate carefully the diverse sorts of human behavior which have been included under this term. Then each of the phenomena is considered at length; the clinically and experimentally determined facts about each one are reviewed; and an evaluation is made of the present state of knowledge on that specific subject. Not until this detailed study of each sort of unconsciousness has been made can the common aspects of them all be thrown into their proper light in a way that is even slightly more than speculative. When such a procedure is followed, however, solid bases for a tentative theory of unconsciousness begin to appear. Only by such an approach can any conclusion be reached as to how conscious behavior is like unconscious and how it is different"--Preface.
