Outlines of psychology with special reference to the theory of education, a textbook for colleges

"In this volume an attempt is made to present the leading facts and truths of psychology, or the science of mind. I abide by the old conception that psychology is distinctly marked off from the physical natural sciences as the chief of the moral sciences, having to do with the phenomena of the inner world, and employing its own method or instrument, namely, introspection. I conceive, further, that as a science of mind it stands in a peculiar relation to philosophical or metaphysical problems, such as the nature and limits of knowledge, and the nature of moral responsibility. At the same time I hold that psychology, while a science of mind, is a science of mind. By this I mean, first of all, that it deals with events or processes which agree with the phenomena of the external world in exhibiting orderliness or uniformity of succession, and so are susceptible of being brought under definite laws ; and, secondly, that it has in its own instruments and methods of research, when properly understood, an adequate means of ascertaining these laws. While following the traditional lead in claiming for psychology a place apart from the physical sciences, as the fundamental moral science, I follow the modern tendency to supplement the properly psychological study of mind by the physiological study of its nervous conditions and concomitants"--Preface.

  • ""In this new edition I have endeavoured to make the Outlines of Psychology a more complete introduction to the science. While thus considering the needs of the general student, I have, in this American edition, borne in mind the special requirements of that large class of readers of my works in America who desire to have pointed out the connections between psychology and education. Accordingly, although in view of the publication, since the first appearance of this work, of a volume specially designed for teachers (The Teacher's Handbook of Psychology), I have been able in this new edition to reduce the sections dealing with the applications of principles to educational methods, I have thought it desirable to retain these sections in a condensed form. They need not, I think, be an obstacle to the general student, who is not particularly interested in education; yet they are, I trust, sufficient to suggest to the teacher lines of application, and to retain for the work something of that practical character which, I have reason to believe, has recommended it to my friendly American readers"--Preface.
