Description: "William James's Principles of Psychology has just been reissued in a triumphal new edition. Why reread a 1,300-page book that was written in the 19th century? Because it remains the single greatest work in American psychology."
—Psychology Today
"The Principles of Psychology is an American masterpiece which...ought to be read from beginning to end at least once by every person professing to be educated. It is a masterpiece in the classic and total sense—no need of a descriptive or limiting word before or after: not 'of observation,' or 'of prose writing,' not more 'scientific' than 'humanistic.' One can point to these and other merits if one is so minded, but the fused substance defies reduction to a list of epithets. No matter how many unexpected qualities are found in it—wit, pathos, imaginative understanding, polemical skill, moral passion, cosmic vision, and sheer learning—the work remains always greater than their sum."
—Jacques Barzun, "A Stroll with William James" (Harper & Row, 1983)
