Summary: The point of view presented in this book is comprehensive, modern, integrated, and functional. Since the field of child psychology is exceedingly broad, a number of experienced teachers have collaborated in this undertaking. No single person can hope to speak authoritatively on all phases of child psychology. These writers have carefully examined the extensive literature in the field; they have taught the subject for a number of years; and, in the light of their knowledge and experience, they have endeavored to prepare a text on child psychology that will be helpful for parents and for students of education. The writers have kept constantly in mind their obligation to the general reader who is not an expert in this specialty. Hence the method of presentation is simple and factual throughout.
