Description: The Principles of Psychology by William James First edition, early printing of the landmark psychology text New York: Henry Holt and Company, 1890. First edition, early printing. Title pages dated 1890, the word "Psychology" not hyphenated on ads pages facing title page of Vol. I; errors corrected on p. 10 of Vol. 1 ("not the sole seat of intellect in frogs") and p. 101 in Vol. 2, "object of some absent sensation." This work advertised on p. 5 of ads at rear of Vol. II. McDermott 1890-4. xii, 689; vi, 704, 8 pp. Two volumes. Bound in publisher's dark green cloth with gilt spine lettering, dark brown coated endpapers. A Very Good+ set: contents bright and unmarked with the exception of personal exlibris numbers written on title pages, light dampstaining to cloth and edges, head and tail of Vol. I worn. Lovely copies of the foundational psychology text. In this 1300+ page masterwork , a summary of his productive years at Harvard, James emphasized his experimental method and the treatment of psychology as a natural science. He argued that mental processes should be viewed as "activities [useful] to living creatures as they attempt to maintain and adapt themselves in the world of nature" (Duane Schultz A History of Modern Psychology, 3rd ed.). Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy called this "a rich blend of physiology, psychology, philosophy, and personal reflection that has given us such ideas as 'the stream of thought' [better known as the "stream of consciousness"] and the baby's impression of the world as 'as one great blooming, buzzing confusion.' It contains seeds of pragmatism and phenomenology, and influenced generations of thinkers in Europe and America." A seminal work in the history of modern thought.
