Abstract
IT has been generally felt for many years that the writing of an up-to-date text-book on psychology required specialized knowledge of so many branches of the subject that it was beyond the power of any one man. Two or three years ago, three distinguished American psychologists, with the help of a number of collaborators, produced “Psychology: a Factual Textbook”, which was very generally welcomed as a satisfactory text-book for courses in Great Britain also. As a result of the numerous suggestions they received from users of the book, they have now produced a new edition so radically different that they have given it a new title.
