Description
Summary:Among the first professors of psychology in the United States and the author of its first comprehensive book, William James with his openness to the breath of human experience and possibility established the wide scope of psychology. In his book, The principles of psychology, he considered virtually every human behavior, emotion, attitude, and way of experiencing. Even though he died in this house 100 years ago, his discussions of human perceiving, thinking, feeling and acting resonate today, not only in the form of study of psychology, but also can have great relevance to how we construct our own individual lives.
