Description
| Summary: | "The present book accordingly represents an entirely fresh survey of the field, and attempts to set forth simply and concisely the more important principles of general psychology. I have come in recent years to assign more importance than I formerly did to the function of subconscious processes in our behavior. I do not for a moment accept the prurient implications of much of the Freudian doctrine, nor have I been greatly influenced by any of its contentions; but on other grounds I have come to the belief that there is a large element of intrinsically intelligent control in many neural processes which escape our direct conscious observation. This I hold to be as true of reflective thought as of the more overt control of our muscles. The text will be found to reflect something of this conviction"--Preface.
