Excerpt from An Introduction to Psychology
The present volume is a popular introduction to the Wundtian psychology. It is a shorter and simpler sketch than the same author''s Outlines of Psychology, and it should prove invaluable to the English-speaking student who wishes to gain some conception of the subject before entering upon a deeper study of the same. Its popularity in Germany has been phenomena].
In translating the work the translator has, as far as possible, used the same English terms as those employed in the translations of Wundt by Judd and Titchener.

It is not the intention of this introduction to psycholog} to discuss the scientific or philosophical conceptions of psychology, or even to make a survey of the investigations and their results. What this little book attempts is rather to introduce the reader to the principal thoughts underlying present-day experimental psychology, leaving out many facts and methods which would be necessaiy for a thorough study of the subject. To omit all mention of experimental methods and their results is at the present day impossible. Yet we only need to consider a comparatively small number of results of the first importance in order to comprehend the basal principles of the new psychology.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book invites readers to explore the fascinating world of consciousness, offering a fresh perspective on the nature of human experience. The author, drawing upon the groundbreaking work of experimental psychology, examines the way we perceive and process the world around us. Through a series of compelling experiments, including the use of a simple metronome, the author demonstrates the rhythmic nature of our consciousness and the limits of our ability to simultaneously perceive multiple objects. The book delves into the fundamental elements of consciousness, dissecting these into sensations and ideas. It further explores the role of apperception, the process by which we focus our attention on specific elements within the broader field of consciousness. The author's investigation into the scope of attention, both in its capacity for encompassing simple impressions and its ability to synthesize complex wholes, reveals the intricate workings of our mental lives. The author's insights into the dynamic interplay of apprehension and apperception offer a nuanced understanding of how we navigate the world, making this book an essential read for anyone curious about the nature of human consciousness and its role in shaping our experiences.
