DURING the last decade there has been growing steadily a tendency to look 

 upon Psychology as a purely objective science. There is an increasing 

 number of psychologists who in their instructional ■work have felt the need 

 of a text-book treating from the objective viewpoint the entire subject matter of Psy- 

 chology. Professor Watson in his text has endeavored to put before college students 

 and students of medicine a concise statement of the data, terminology and methods 

 employed in objective Psychology. It is not a polemic against other psychological 

 positions. It maintains throughout a constructive attitude, employing, of course, 

 where possible, the material that has been gathered by objective methods. It does 

 not, however, neglect any field at present belonging to Psychology. When data 

 less objectively acquired are lacking, the current psychological facts are rehabilitated 

 in terminology so that they will fit into an objective system of Psychology.
