Our knowledge of human instincts and capacities, of the processes of learning and remembering, of mental work and fatigue, and of individual differences and their causes has been much increased in the past score of years. This knowledge I have organized for advanced students in separate volumes on "The Original Nature of Man," "The Psychology of Learning," "Work and Fatigue and Individual Differences." The current book represents a simpler treatment of the more fundamental subject matter of these volumes, organized as a text-book in Educational Psychology for students in colleges and normal schools. Its method is that of straightforward and systematic presentation of principles. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2004 APA, all rights reserved)
