Summary |
"This book presents as consistent and systematic a sketch as possible of the general field of normal human psychology, elaborating the details only when they are essential to the general survey. The book tries to show that the data of psychology cannot at present be definitely described except in terms of theories which are more or less "philosophical," and that the attempt to divorce the data from the theories would result in the uncritical acceptance of fragments of theories. This book is not designed to be made the sole basis of a course in elementary psychology and cannot be used as a text from which both students and teacher may draw their information. As a main or supplementary text for semiadvanced students, it should find its greatest usefulness"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2008 APA, all rights reserved). |
