Présentation de l'éditeur

Know thyself, saidS ocrates, the founder of occidental civilization, and his maxim still keeps its potency as a stimulus to profitable endeavor. The proper study of mankind is man, said Alexander Pope in imitation of Socrates, and modern psychology has verified the truth of his remark. It is consequently in no sense of the term an innovation for this book to be called theS cience of Human Behavior. Psychology, then, is concerned with much more than mans thoughts. It concerns his entire nature. If the psychologist studies the human mind, he also investigates the part which the human body plays in causing and regulating mental phenomena; if he studies thoughts and feelings, he also inquires how that marvel of natures ingenuity the human brain provides the machinery by which thoughts and feelings are generated. I ndeed, since the modern point of view in psychology is that mind is strictly a function of the human body, no true psychology is possible without some knowledge of physiology a knowledge which this book undertakes to provide for the most elementary reader.
