Psychic factors of civilisation

"The object of the present work is to determine the precise role that mind plays in social phenomena. In the preface to the former volume I enumerated five of the comprehensive principles embodied in it to which attention had not previously been specially directed. Three of these related to the domain of mind. As I am still, so far as I am aware, alone in insisting upon the reality and importance of these principles, I will repeat them here: (1) The theory of the Social Forces, and the fundamental antithesis which they imply between Feeling and Function; (2) The contrast between these true Social Forces and the guiding influence of the Intellect, embodying the application of the Indirect Method of Conation and the essential nature of Invention, of Art, and of Dynamic Action and (3) The superiority of Artificial, or Teleological, Processes over Natural, or Genetic, Processes"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved).
