Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychological Bulletin, 1908, Vol. 5: Containing the Literature Section of the Psychological Review Probably the most conspicuous single achievement in the period under review is' the 'series Of text-books designed to introduce the student to the methods and principles of scientific psychology by Judd.3 It combines the virtues Of constructive psychological theory with the assured technique Of experimentation. Produced in the lab oratory and designed to contribute to the advance Of laboratory in struction, it is probably the best available concrete index to the view that experimental psychology is never an end in itself, but at best is to be regarded only as a scientific and pedagogical means to the end Of promoting final psychological theory. The leading principles under lying the General Introduction' are the functional View, the genetic method Of treatment, emphasis upon the physiological conditions, and the significance Of ideation as a unique and final stage Of evolution, as stated by the author. In reminding the psychologist that it is his duty not to 'ignore the unique reality of consciousness, ' in presenting a new five-fold analysis of consciousness to supersede the Old three-fold and two-fold classifications Of mental processes, and especially in re instating the concept Of self into the fundamental graces Of the science, those principles have gone far in arighting many recent tangential ten dencies into the direction of the permanent development of psychology.
