Summary:

The illumination of practice by principle in matters psychological, is the keynote of the undertaking of the present volume. By the nature of the subject the unity of the present volume is selective rather than consecutive; the common bearing of the exposition is directed to the expressions of mental procedure in ordinary activities. In eclectic manner, but with a singleness of purpose, the volume covers certain areas of contact between the results of psychology and the practical expression of mental processes in current situations and occupations. The rapprochement will serve to quicken the appreciation of the message which psychology brings to daily life, to deepen understanding, and thereby extend control. The simple statement of the text and the familiarity of the range of illustration will recommend the volume to the increasing numbers of readers and students whose natural bent and occupation gives them an interest in the conduct of mind.
