Summary note

"The purpose of this book is to present to teachers and to student-teachers the material which, through a number of years of teaching, the author has found to be of the greatest use in helping them to understand their work, and to make application of sound psychological theory to their daily problems. There is no attempt in this volume to teach "pure psychology," although some of pure or general psychology finds place in the chapters. This book can also be used as a text in a second course in psychology, the first course having been general psychology, or, as experience with a mimeograph edition has shown, it can be used successfully with students who have not had any previous course in psychology"--Preface.
