 $1.20 net. 



This book deals with the facts and principles of 

 mental development. It takes up the special phase 

 of psychology which is of most importance to 

 teachers, for it traces the changes which are pro- 

 duced in mental life as a result of education in its 

 various forms. It calls attention to many facts in the 

 teacher's own mental life that illustrate and present 

 to direct personal observation processes of develop- 

 ment. This study of one's own mental development 

 makes it possible to understand the nature of such 

 development. Starting from this firm basis of self- 

 study, the reader is carried forward to the less 

 directly observable forms of development that appear 

 in others. The essence of the argument is that 

 " teacher-study " is the only true basis for child-study. 



The book applies the principles of mental devel- 

 opment directly to the problems of teaching, reading 

 writing, and the use of number. One of its unique 

 features is that it takes up specifically, not in a vague, 

 general way, but exhaustively and dearly, the prac- 

 tical problems that confront the individual teacher.
