Excerpt from Mental Development in the Child and the Race: Methods and Processes
For this reason the question Of arrangement was an excessively difficult one to me. The relations Of individual development to race development are so intimate the two are so identical, in fact - that no topic in the one can be treated with great clearness without assuming results in the other. SO any order Of treatment in such a work must seem finally to be only the least of possible evils.
My final arrangement of chapters presents, however, when a patient reader is in front Of the page, a fair degree of reason, I think. The earliest chapters (i. To. VI.) are devoted to the statement Of the genetic problem, with reports Of the facts Of infant life and the methods Of investigating them, and the mere teasing out of the strings Of law on which the facts are beaded the principles Of Suggestion, Habit, Accommodation, etc. These chapters have their own end as well, giving researches Of some value, possibly, for psychology and education. They serve their purpose also in the progress Of the book, as giving a statement of the central problem Of motor adaptation. Chapter V. Gives a detailed analysis Of one voluntary function, Handwriting. Then follows the theory of adaptation, stated in general terms in Chap ters VII. And VIII.; and afterwards comes a genetic view in detail (chaps. IX. To XVI.) Of the progress Of mental devel opment in its great stages, Memory, Association, Attention, Thought, Self-consciousness, Volition. SO the whole is a whole.

Excerpt from Mental Development in the Child and the Race: Methods and Processes
In writing this book I have had rather conflicting aims. It was begun as a series of articles reporting observations on infants, published in part in the journal Science, 1890-1892. In the prosecution of this purpose, however, I found it necessary constantly to enlarge my scope for the entertainment of a widened genetic view. This came to clearer consciousness in the treatment of the child's imitations, especially when I came to the relation of imitation to volition, as treated in my paper before the London Congress of Experimental Psychology in 1892. The farther study of this subject brought what was to me such a revelation of the genetic function of imitation that I then determined - under the inspiration, also, of the small group of writers lately treating the subject - to work out a theory of mental development in the child, incorporating this new insight.
This occupied my thought, and was made the topic of my graduate Seminar in psychology at Princeton, in 1893-94, the result being the conviction that no consistent view of mental development in the individual could possibly be reached without a doctrine of the race development of consciousness, - i.e., the great problem of the evolution of mind.
I then fell to reading again the literature of biological evolution, with view to a possible synthesis of the current biological theory of organic adaptation with the doctrine of the infant's development, as my previous work had led me to formulate it. This is the problem of Spencer and Romanes.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origin and development of consciousness in both humans and animals, in order to gain a better understanding of the nature of the mind. The author argues that the mind is not a fixed substance but rather a growing, evolving activity, and that by studying the development of consciousness in infants and animals, we can gain insights into the origins of human thought and behavior. The author also explores the relationship between individual and race development, arguing that the development of the individual mind recapitulates the development of the race mind. This book is a valuable contribution to the field of psychology, and it offers a unique perspective on the nature of the mind and its development. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
