Practical Psychology for Business Executives (Classic Reprint)

This collection of material has been made with the purpose of bringing together in readable form some of the important and useful writings on the application of psychology to industry. The last decade has seen the growth of a body of psychological ideas of great importance in economic life. Many authorities have contributed the benefits of their experiments and discoveries to a wide and scattered literature in the field, and it is hoped that this symposium may aid in making business men acquainted with the more practical parts of this literature. A bibliography has been prepared, its divisions corresponding with the chapters of the book. For the most part, the publications which have been the sources of the quoted extracts used in this volume, have not been relisted in the bibliography. I have been greatly aided by Mr. Jesse C. Neff in the collection of material, the selection of titles, and the entire workmanship of the book. His judgment and discrimination have played a most helpful part in every phase of the undertaking. Mrs. Nef Fscooperation in the preparation of the manuscript has been highly gratifying, and it is desired to extend here a full appreciation of her interest and assistance. The sources and authorship of material are recognized by footnotes accompanying each individual article. LIONEL D. EDIE.
