Content: "This book examines objective and experimental psychiatry. The author argues that so many psychiatric concepts are mere traditions, that it is fatally easy to be entrapped by words and by logic. In no field is this so pervasive as in the study of the behaviour of humanity. An increasing number of us experience a feeling of growing distrust of purely descriptive and intuitive concepts of human behaviour and find it more and more difficult to content ourselves with facts or assertions save where they will withstand experimentation and will not fail us on prediction. Time has brought us so great a development of instrumentation and so much larger an understanding of experimental methods that we are now in a fair way to realize our dream of analyzing human behavior objectively, dispassionately and, above all, of being able to predict and control"--Preface.
