Description
| Abstract: | "There is no better way to introduce the student to the issues involved in the use of intelligence tests than to acquaint him with the experiments and the conceptions which led to their development. It is to serve this purpose that Professor Peterson's book has been written. The author's thorough familiarity with the pertinent historical facts, his clarity of exposition, and his freedom from bias in the treatment of unsettled questions have given us a book which is certain to prove extremely useful as a text in normal schools, colleges, and universities. It will also meet an important need among teachers in service whose formal training has not included courses in mental measurement and who want more than a superficial knowledge about the methods of testing and rating which they are expected to employ"--Introduction.
