In the first place, something like an apology is due for the free way in which the author has drawn upon the original work of many fellow - psychologists, without any mention of their names. This is practically unavoidable in a book intended for the beginner, but the reader may well be informed of the fact, and cautioned not to credit the content of the book to the writer of it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Human Nature Club: An Introduction to the Study of Mental Life It goes Without saying that the author is indebted to psychological literature in general so far as he is acquainted With it. In particular he is indebted to the writings and teachings of Professor William James, who/is so often paraphrased in this book. The debt to Professor james is so evident that it seems unnecessary to point out the many places Where his formulae have been made to do service.

The book aims to represent the present state of a very active science. Should the book appear unduly long in prospect, the longest and most detailed chapter, that on Sensation, might perfectly well be omitted, on the first reading, without appreciably disturbing the continuity of the rest. On the other hand should any reader desire to make this text the basis of a more extensive course of reading, the lists of references appended to the several chapters will prove of service. The books and articles there cited will be found interesting and not too technical in style. Much advantage can be derived from the use of the "Exercises". The text, at the best, but provides raw material. Each student's finished product must be of his own making. The exercises afford opportunity for the student to work over the material and make it his own. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Study of the Mental Life of the Child Classic Reprint written by H. Von Hug-Hellmuth and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of the Mental Life of the Child The appearance of this book in English translation should be welcomed by all serious students of the periods of infancy and early childhood; - not because the claim can be made for it that it represents the outcome of a judicial weighing of all the factors that go to make the infant and the child that which they are, but because it describes, in almost monographic form, a certain, very important, group of these factors, - of which nothing would be known but for the work of Sigmund Freud, whose views the author of this treatise faithfully reproduces. Whatever differences of opinion may be held about some of the bearings of these views, the time is now long past when any one who cares for the truth about the matters to which they pertain can excuse himself for treating them with neglect. To do so would be to neglect the most thorough study which ever has been published, of a set of influences, or motives, which have a vast amount to do with the development of the poetical, literary, religious, philosophical and esthetic tendencies in human nature, and which serve indirectly (through giving rise to "conflicts") as fruitful causes of defects of character, unhappiness, and positive illnesses of pronounced sorts. To some extent the desires to which these motives correspond belong to what might be called the "underworld of human thought." The most significant of the earlier contributions to the history of infancy and early childhood came from men and women who strove to record with fidelity the sayings and doings of their own children. The plan was unexceptionable; but it should be recognized that where the thoughts, feelings and emotions of a human being are the object of study, the ability to "see and hear" is limited, almost rigorously, by the ability to "understand." An observer is not a phonograph, but a person, whose seeing and hearing is largely a selecting, carried on with deference to a set of opinions, mainly preconceived though subject to constant modification. One's senses, urged forward or held back by one's personality, rush to confirm, or hasten instinctively to turn away from, what one's education has led one to regard as noteworthy or objectionable, as the case may be, in the light of what one knew or felt or hoped for or had learned to look on with disfavor or disgust.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Psychology This book is designed to serve as a text for stu dents who are pursuing a first course in psychology. It aims to present in an elementary way, and within a small compass, the more easily observed facts of our mental life together with the generally accepted principles of their explanation. Its field is chiefly the study of the normal, adult, human mind, and so may be described as an introduction to what is known as General Psychology. In these days, 'the winter of our discontent, ' the writer of a first book in psychology may follow one of three courses: he may appear as 'the champion of the structural psychology' or as the advocate of a psychology in terms of behavior or he may proceed after the manner of the eclectic, without special re gard to the systematic agreement of the topics and matter selected. In the preparation of the present text, the writer followed the third course, and a word of explanation seems in place. It is clear that many of the topics that belong to an introductory survey of psychology lend them selves easily and naturally to the functional method of treatment, while certain other topics, no less im portant in a first book, invite rather a structural treatment. It is clear, moreover, that the student may get important side lights from the biological, physiological, genetic and other points of view.

Download or read book The Mind at Work written by Geoffrey Rhodes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mind at Work: A Handbook of Applied Psychology The study of the mind cannot properly be separated from the study of the body, for the two are most intimately related. We all know that when tired and hungry the brain refuses to work. We cannot think clearly. A glass of wine and a biscuit and a short rest restores to us our mental faculties. Or to put the case the other way, good news stimulates appetite, while shock or anxiety gives a distaste for food. These are simple and obvious illustrations; but there are much more remarkable ones that we shall have to discuss later on. The greater part of our mental life is necessarily made up of impressions of the outside world that reach us by means of our senses. The eyes and ears and other receptive organs are constantly telegraphing messages to the brain along the nerve fibres. It is one of the chief functions of the mind to interpret these messages, and they eventually, in some mysterious fashion, pass into the region of our consciousness. These primary sensations of a physical origin supply the science of psychology with a convenient starting-point for its investigation, and the study of sensation forms a link between the science of the body and the science of the mind.
