Excerpt from The Soul of a Child It is hardly necessary to explain that by the soul of the child we mean the child. There was an an cient psychology that picked the child to pieces and found body, mind, and soul, and some other things. And what they called the soul was hardly worth temporary existence, to say nothing of immortality. We are glad the tendency of the modern psychology is not to pick the child to pieces, but to put him together, to emphasize the fact that in all our study of consciousness and phenomena we are really talk ing about the same individual. That the soul ex presses itself through the body we all admit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
