Excerpt from A Text-Book of Psychology, Vol. 1

The present work has been written to take the place of my Outline of Psye/zology. The Outline, which was stereo typed in 1896, had long passed beyond the possibility of revision, and the continued demand for it showed that there was still room in the science for a text-book which set experimental methods and experimental results in the forefront of discussion. I should have preferred, however ungratefully, to let the book die its natural death; for I feared that it would be impossible to recover the freshness and vigour of the first writing, and I knew that another issue would lay an oppressive tax upon future time and energy. But colleagues and pupils and publisher were insistent, and I finally decided to rewrite. This Part I. Contains, approximately, half of the new work; Part II. Will appear, I hope, in 1910. In the meantime, the last edition of the Outline will be kept upon the market: as soon as the Text-book is complete, it will be withdrawn.
