This book was released on 2017-07-15 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Borderland of Psychical Research I have not tried in this to make any contribution to science. I am not trying anything new or sensa tional, but only to aid a little in the general enlight enment of those who are seeking some way of an in telligent understanding of the human mind in its less normal experiences. Hence the book must not be adj udged from the point of view of the trained psy chologist as an effort to help scholars, but from the standpoint of public education as designed to do what text-books can hardly undertake. I have been free with illustrations and striking incidents, both as a means of exhibiting the nature of the problems of psychic research and of creating interest and intelli gence regarding them. If the work avails to serve any such purpose, I shall be satisfied. But it is de signed as a conservative treatment of very perplexing questions, and any expectations that it will do more will mistake both its aim and its usefulness. It simply touches upon problems which yet await investigation, and, though it proceeds along the lines of well-estab lished truths, it suggests what there may be beyond them. Janna H. Hump.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Psychical Research for the Plain Man It has unfortunately happened in the matter of evidence for supernormal occurrences, with which is involved the hope of life after death, that the judge and the jury, the expert and the man in the street, seldom or never come into contact. For nearly forty years the Society for Psychical Research acting as judge, has been summing up in an impartial manner the evidence for and against supernormal occurrences; but the jury, the general public, knows practically nothing about either the evidence or the summing up. The general public derives its ideas either from paragraphs in newspapers, which mostly turn the whole thing into ridicule, without argument or from books of 'ghost stories written by people who treat the existence of beings they call 'elementals, ' as an established fact, and mention chats with Charlotte Bronte as everyday occurrences.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illusions: A Psychological Study The present volume takes a wide survey of the field of error, embracing in its view not only the illusions of sense dealt with in treatises on physiological optics, etc., but also other errors familiarly known as illusions, and resembling the former in their structure and mode of origin. I have throughout endeavoured to keep to a strictly scientific treatment, that is to say, the description and classification of acknowledged errors, and the explanation of these by a reference to their psychical and physical conditions. At the same time, I was not able, at the close of my exposition, to avoid pointing out how the psychology leads on to the philosophy of the subject. Some of the chapters were first roughly sketched out in articles published in magazines and reviews; but these have been not only greatly enlarged, but, to a considerable extent, rewritten.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mental Mechanisms A few words only by way of introduction so that the reader may be assisted to an understanding of the plan of this book. It is always helpful to get a bird's-eye View of a city One is about to explore, or [to look at a field under the microscope first with a low-power Objective, for purposes of general orientation, before examining the minute details with a lens of higher magnification. In the first place the book does not pretend to an exhaustive setting forth Of all the principles underlying psychopathology, but only to an explanation and emphasis of certain fundamentals which appear to me absolutely essential to an understanding of the problems of present-day psychiatry. The first chapter is devoted to a consideration Of the building up Of the structure of consciousness, the organization and Opera tion of the forces at work and somewhat of the laws of their interplay. The second chapter accounts, in a general. Way, ' for the content Of consciousness, the nature of that content, and gives a general account of certain types Of reaction. The third chapter deals somewhat more specifically with the content Of conscious ness as illustrated by dreams, the content of the psychoses, and certain phenomena Of the content of the race consciousness - folk lore. The fourth chapter is devoted to a definition of the com plex and an explanation Of its effects both in the normal mind and in the psychoses. Chapter five carries out the principles eluci dated in the preceding chapters in the setting forth of the problem of hysteria, while in chapter six the principles are applied to an explanation of the problem of art, both from the standpoint Of the creation Of art and the nature of its appeal. Chapter seven sets forth the methods by which, in accordance with the princi ples thus far laid down, it is possible to attain to a knowledge Of the content Of consciousness, and discusses certain therapeutic issues; while the final chapter, chapter eight, is a general discussion of the bearing Of all that precedes upon the problems of preventive medicine, with some suggestions as to methods of procedure.

Book Synopsis Physiological Psychology (Classic Reprint) by : William Mcdougall
Download or read book Physiological Psychology (Classic Reprint) written by William Mcdougall and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-16 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Physiological Psychology Psvcgronocv may be best and most comprehensively defined as the positive science of the conduct of living creatures. That 18 to say, it is the science which attempts to describe and explain the conduct of men and of other living creatures, and is not concerned with questions as to what their conduct ought to be. These questions it leaves to Ethics, the normatwe science of conduct. In adopting this definition we must understand the word conduct in the widest possible sense as denoting the sum of the activities by which any creature maintains its relations with other creatures and with the world of physical things. Psychology is more, commonly defined as the science of mind, or as the science of mental or psychical processes, or of consciousness, or of individual experience. Such definitions are ambiguous, and without further elaboration are not sufficiently comprehensive. They express the aims of a psychologist who relies solely upon introspection, the observ ation and analysis of his own experience, and who unduly neglects the manifestations of mental life afforded by the con duct of his fellow-creatures. They do not adequately define the task that modern physiological psychology sets before itself. For physiological psychology aims at describing and explaining, as far as possible, all the factors that take part in determining the conduct of all living creatures, and though conduct seems to be in great part determined by our sensations, feelings, desires.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physiological Psychology: A Treatise of the Activities and Nature of the Mind From the Physical and Experimental Point of View 2. Perhaps the most common definition of psychology, up to the present time, has regarded it as the science of the human soul. If this definition had always been given, on beginning the pursuit of the science, only in a provisional way, and with the implied or open confession that it is the business of psychology itself to de monstrate the existence of a particular entity called the soul, and.

Download or read book Psychology and Psychic Culture (Classic Reprint) written by Reuben Post Halleck and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Psychology and Psychic Culture For several years the author has taught psychology under conditions which necessitated its presentation in as plain and as interesting a manner as possible. He has endeavored to impose the same conditions upon himself in writing this book. Psychological text-books have too often been a bundle of abstractions. It seems as if the human mind ought to have qualities that would interest the average person, whether young or old. After consider able experience, the author can testify that the leading truths of psychology can be given in an intelligible way to pupils under the age of twenty. He has aimed in this volume to present as much of the science as the general student will need. Especial effort has been made to enliven the hard and dry facts of the science by employing illustrations and anecdotes to elucidate them. No one knows better than the psychologist that it is of little use to present the best of subjects in an unattractive way, because facts devoid of interesting features will not secure the attention. The chapters on the application of psychological laws in the cultivation of the mental powers are a characteristic feature of this work. Laws are of little use unless they are applied; hence these chapters are of the utmost impor tance to all who have not passed the plastic age.

Download or read book On Double Consciousness written by Alfred Binet and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Double Consciousness: Experimental Psychological Studies It is known that of late years, in France, a great scientific movement has come about in favor of experimental psychology. While the professors of our High Schools and Universities are continuing to teach an antiquated science, whose only method is that of introspection, there has arisen on all sides in the philosophical reviews, and even in journals strictly medical, a body of work in which the investigation of mental phenomena is conducted according to the methods of natural science. Incontestably, the forerunner of this activity in psychological inquiry was M. Taine, who published in 1869 an important treatise upon "The Understanding." With remarkable penetration M. Taine foresaw, to a certain extent, the most important results obtained in recent years. Thus, the entire chapter upon "Images" may still be consulted with profit. The real inaugurator of the psychological movement proper, is M. Ribot. The psychologists of France owe much to M. Ribot.
