Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Psychological Review, Vol. 1
In other words, gentlemen, let us allow Our eyes to wander with an aesthetical and ethical, rather than purely scientific, intent over our broad and fair domain, before we settle down, as a well-organized colony, to its minuter exploration and cultivation.
The three classes of Inquiries to which reference was just made are the following: (i) What is the relation in which the statistical and experimental investigation of mental phenom ena stands to the total science of psychology, in the larger meaning Of the latter words? (2) What is the relation in which the science Of psychology, thus understood, stands to that interpretation Of the external world and Of human life, in its yet larger and profounder experiences, which we are wont to call philosophy? (3) What is the relation in which the science Of psychology stands to conduct and to the prao tical welfare Of mankind? More brie?y expressed: how shall we regard the science Of mental life as related to the methods and conclusions Of the most nearly allied physical sciences, to philosophy, and to human action and character?
