Summary:

"This volume presents a systematic, descriptive account of mental phenomena and of psychological processes. The phenomena are subjective events; the processes are redintegrative sequences in nature. It is not easy to characterize the view here presented in terms of contemporary "isms." The book aspires to a straightforward description of certain aspects of nature, rather than to the defense of a prejudice. Although descriptive, the view is not that of "structuralism." It does not deal with a reputed dependent realm of "mental contents" or "conscious elements." Its psychology is dynamic, in that it deals with activities, processes, occurrences, rather than with static cross sections of mental life"--Preface.
