H This work on psychopathology is the first 

 of its kind in the English language and dif- 

 fers decidedly from most current works on 

 psychiatry and abnormal psychology. It 

 does not proceed from the sterile assump- 

 tion that the brain is the organ of the mind 

 and the conclusion that, because in some 

 cases undeveloped or diseased nervous tissue 

 causes abnormal behavior, therefore in all 

 neuroses or cases of abnormal behavior a 

 diseased or inherently deficient nervous sys- 

 tem or some obscure constitutional inferi- 

 ority exists. 



If In the first chapter Kempf shows how the 

 entire body is the organ of the mind; show- 

 ing how its visceral segments produce nor- 

 mal and abnormal emotional cravings and 

 mental states. 



U The second, third, and fourth chapters 

 demonstrate how environmental influences 

 distort the emotions, and the fifth chapter 

 shows how all abnormal people are classi- 

 fiable according to their dominant cravings 

 and the manner in which they try to control 

 them. 



H Chapters six to thirteen discuss, with 

 numerous case illustrations, how people de- 

 velop into different abnormal types, how 

 these types may be changed what causes 

 them to change and how many again read- 

 just to normal, and why others of the same 

 type can never become normal again. 



H Chapter fourteen recapitulates the entire 

 work for the student, writer, and lecturer. 



H Chapter fifteen discusses psychotherapeutic 

 principles and what society must do for the 

 individual to enable him to achieve a full 

 normal growth and healthy personality. 



U An ample series of illustrations is used to 

 explain the significance of common symbols 

 to be found in dreams, delusions, hallucina- 

 tions, fancies, art and ritual and why they 

 are valuable for the emotions. 



TI The book is fully and carefully indexed in 

 order to bring together the more important 

 similar featlires to be found throughout the 

 cases. 



H For those who have not the time of oppor- 

 tunity to make exhaustive, intimate, analyt- 

 ical studies of normal or abnormal people, 

 but who need such case studies for their 

 work as advisors, teachers, lecturers, or wri- 

 ters, Kempf's Psychopathology will fill an 

 important need. It is presented to psycho- 

 pathologists, physicians, sociologists, psy- 

 chologists, teachers, judges, lavi^^ers, cus- 

 todians and directors of educational, military 

 and custodial institutions to assist them to a 

 clearer understanding of the abnormal or 

 potentially abnormal individual. 



H The cases are presented fully and without 

 prudish reservation. They will be of assist- 

 ance to educators and advisors on sex edu- 

 cation in their work of keeping normal 

 people normal.
