From the Preface:
"The lectures published in this book were prepared for oral delivery to widely differing audiences.  I am very conscious that their reproduction in print form robs them of much that made them tolerable, and even enjoyable, to their original hearers...
These, therefore, are really lectures on applied psychology.  They try to show that it is a subject of unique interest and universal applicability, that it has a dignity, a fascination and a value all its own, and that it is possible to present and expound it without indulging in unintelligible jargon on the one hand, or cheap and popular catchworks on the other."
