Extract from the Prospectus. 



Psychology which till recently was known among us chiefly as Mental 

 Philosophy and was mainly concerned with problems of a more or less specula- 

 tive and transcendental character, has now at length attained the position of a 

 positive science ; one of special interest to the philosopher, no doubt, but still 

 independent of his control, possessing its own methods, its own specific 

 problems and a distinct standpoint altogether its own. 'Ideas' in the 

 philosophical sense do not fall within its scope : its inquiries are restricted 

 entirely to 'facts.' In pursuit of these it is brought into close relations with 

 biology, physiology, pathology and again with philology, anthropology and 

 even literature. Its results also have important practical applications for the 

 educationist, the jurist, the economist, quite apart from their theoretical 

 bearing on the problems of the epistemologist and the moralist. In becoming 

 a distinct science it has thus increased the intimacy and variety of its con- 

 nexions with other sciences manifold.... No wonder then that as was stated in 

 our preliminary circular 'the belief is widespread that the time has come 

 for starting an English journal devoted exclusively to Psychology in all its 

 branches,' analytical, genetic, comparative, experimental, pathological, in- 

 dividual, ethnical, etc. Accordingly, to meet this want the publication of the 

 present Journal has been undertaken. Within the vast range of topics just 

 indicated it will side with no school and have no predilections. Its one aim 

 will be to serve as the ' organ ' of all alike who are working at any one of the 

 many branches into which Psychology has now differentiated.

 (usually) constitute a volume of about 450 pages Royal 8vo. The price to 

 subscribers, payable in advance, will be 15^. net per volume (post free). The
