Summary "This book aims to bring together psychology and living. Many years of teaching psychology and wide contact with business have impressed upon me the inadequacy of our knowledge of psychology in relation to vital problems of human behavior on the one hand, and the omnipresence of psychological problems on the other. This book endeavors to consider more fully the vital problems of human behavior than the average introductory text. It aims to deal with situations that matter to us, with basic problems around which the world of human affairs revolves. It is designed to deal with problems connected with making a living, with establishing and maintaining family life, with behavior in business operations, with influencing people in the mass, and finally with the art of effective, satisfying living. This book is not designed to be a supplementary text or a text on applied psychology. It is designed to be a first book in psychology for use in introductory courses in colleges and universities. It comprises much material not found in current texts in addition to what I and the collaborating authors believe to be the essential scientific material for an introductory book. Problems, cases, illustrations, and settings are taken, as far as possible, from everyday affairs"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2005 APA, all rights reserved)
