[Review of the book Psychology

Abstract

Reviews the book, Psychology, The Science of Mental Activity by F. H. Lund (see record 1927-02322-000 ). The author states the aim and general position of this elementary text in the following sentences "With the many 'isms' which burden modern psychology it would appear desirable to have general texts which avoid controversial aspects and combine the best results from the different fields without regard to the point of view held by the workers." The general content and method are that of the typical eclectic text. Novel features are the section on purposive activity and the extensive use made of the principle of redintegration.
