Excerpt from Know Your Own Mind: A Little Book of Practical PsychologyMR H. G. Wells, in Mankind in the Making, says that only thoughts which can be expressed on the meanest commonplace will ever, under present conditions, reach the minds of the majority of the English-speaking peoples. If this be so, it is a bad look-out for the popularity of Psychology.Personally, I think Mr Wells too pessimistic and in the following pages I have tried to interest the man in the street - not the man at the street-corner - in the study of a subject vital to his welfare. I have, moreover, been encouraged in my project by the words of that eminent authority, William James, who tells us that the elements of the mental machine can be clearly apprehended, and their workings easily grasped.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
