A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Know thyself is a very ancient maxim. The affirmation that, The proper study of mankind is man, is less ancient, more poetic, and equally worthy of acceptance. To know ones self is to know man; to know man is to know mind, since mind alone constitutes the real man. It is coming to be felt by students and teachers that the science of mind has claims upon their attention equal, at least, to those of the physical sciences, of history, or of language and literature. In this feeling the writer shares very fully. One serious obstacle to the study of psychology in secondary 7schools has been the lack of text-books adapted to the degree of 4development and attainments of the pupils, to modern methods of investigation and instruction, and to the attainment of re- suits which should be secured by such study. 5T his book owes its existence and its form to the long experience of the author as a teacher of the elements of mental and moral science in schools of different grades, but especially to an experience of many years in such teaching in the Michigan State Normal School. It contains the substance of the instruction which has been found most profitable in such an institution. An attempt has been made to treat of the powers and activities of the mind in a manner easy and familiar, and adapted particularly to students of Normal Schools, High Schools, and other institutions of similar rank and character. No claim to originality of thought is put forth. Materials have been gathered from all accessible sources. These sources are so numerous that special acknowledgments are impossible, excepting as they have been made in the body of the work.
