Abstract

Progressive specialisation in psychology has necessitated the provision of symposia to let the expert know what is happening in other branches of his subject. Present-day Psychology, although planned in a different way, continues the work begun in Psychologies of 1925 and Psychologies of 1930. It contains some forty original contributions and while it cannot tell all that is happening in the different fields of psychology it can claim to be a fair survey of all trends and topics. It is not perhaps as cosmopolitan as its predecessors; the contributors are predominantly American and those who are not have concerned themselves principally with the problems of clinical and dynamic psychology.
