"The purpose of this contribution is to present a usable psychology of practical rehabilitation. Many of the techniques and values suggested have come from many years of most intimate contact with hundreds of individuals undergoing rehabilitation. While the authorities of the past have been consulted, it is assumed that a modern rationale must take into consideration a new world of people, ideas and ideals, new ways of living and an orientation based upon more dynamic concepts. The problems of rehabilitation today must be resolved in the light of the present day trends in the direction of social as well as economic transformation. The criterion of effective adjustment may well inhere in the query: "Will society assume the responsibility and pay the bill for John Smith's re-education and will it then accept him as a worthy member who is willing and able to resume an acceptable place in the community?" Pestalozzi says: "Secure the love of the child and his education is an easy matter." It is equally true that if society can secure the confidence and good will of the subject, his re-education will be a much easier matter. There must be a sympathetic unity and mutuality of effort to insure success. Some approaches to rehabilitation have failed for the reason that the major emphasis has been placed upon a study of vocational skill. The new methods lay stress upon the individual's interests and emotional life as well as his capacity for learning. In this volume an attempt has been made to study the underlying mechanisms of behavior as shown in the various personality types both normal and abnormal as the basis for method and procedure. One must not forget that it is the individual, not the job, which is being rehabilitated. On the other hand, progressive rehabilitation is also making a study of situational factors with the idea of fitting the job more understandingly to the changed makeup of the trainee. The most effective system now being developed promises to make more adequate provision for an adjustment in which both the individual and the job become more sympathetically related"--
