"This volume is a continuation of the studies in genetic psychology begun in my Mental Development in the Child and the Race. As was announced in the earlier work, I had intended to publish the volume of 'Interpretations' under the same general heading of 'Mental Development' and to include in it certain educational 'Interpretations' also. It seems best, however, for the sake of unity of treatment in this volume, --and also on account of its size, --to omit the educational matter for the present, and also to make this volume quite independent of the former work, except in so far as the natural connection requires somewhat frequent reference to it. This departure from my original plan also enables me to include in Part II certain chapters which were written with reference to the question set by the Royal Academy of Denmark ("Is it possible to establish, for the individual isolated in society, rules of conduct drawn entirely from his personal nature; and if such rules are possible, what is their relation to the rules which would be reached from the consideration of society as a whole?"). I have also endeavoured, in view of the lack in English of a book on Social Psychology which can be used in the universities in connection with courses in psychology, ethics, and social science, to make my essay available for such a purpose. This has led to such expansions--some may call them repetitions--of the fundamental ideas of the work as seemed necessary to a fairly complete working-out of the social element in connection with each of the greater psychological functions. Part I is thus made, as far as its topics are concerned, a more or less complete study of social and ethical psychology"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved).
