Summary:
"What is psychology? With what is it concerned? What are the questions it seeks to answer? How is it setting about its task? What are its methods? What progress has it made? Is it a science in an advanced stage of development? Or is it one merely beginning to find its feet, to take definite shape, and to map out clearly its programme of work? Above all, what may we hope from it in the way of addition to our power of understanding human nature and of contributing to the welfare of mankind? These are the questions which I shall attempt to answer in this book as simply as the difficulties of the subject will permit. After 19 impressions and 24 years, this volume remains a valid and generally useful introductory survey to psychology"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2007 APA, all rights reserved).
