Description
Summary:"The work confines itself to a discussion of fundamental principles, and to the more interesting of the problems raised by modern research. As indicated by the subtitle, the book is concerned with the original learning equipment which has been given to man by nature. The author's scheme of organization has an excellent soundness and scope. Each of the eight chapters or sections offers the material for several weeks' work. In selecting topics for discussion, the author has paid special attention to those which are regarded as somewhat controversial at the present time. Believing that experiment is the best foundation for a science of psychology, an objective and scientific point of view has been consistently maintained"--Jacket.
