Talks To Teachers On Psychology; And To Students On Some Of Life's Ideals

eBook (Prabhat Prakashan April 4, 2018)
In 1892 I was asked by the Harvard Corporation to give a few public lectures on psychology to the Cambridge teachers. The talks now printed form the substance of that course; which has since then been delivered at various places to various teacher-audiences. I have found by experience that what my hearers seem least to relish is analytical technicality; and what they most care for is concrete practical application. So I have gradually weeded out the former; and left the latter unreduced; and now; that I have at last written out the lectures; they contain a minimum of what is deemed 'scientific' in psychology; and are practical and popular in the extreme.
