Excerpt from Outline of a Study of the Self
The authors have discovered, through their experience as teachers, that a study of the ancestry, development, and present constitution of the self is an extremely profitable task for most students. They therefore present this outline as an aid to the systematic and thorough study of the several important aspects of the self.
The purpose of the study is threefold: first, to help you to understand your self and to become a useful and happy member of society; second, to help you to understand and sympathize with other persons, especially children, and to further their development; third, to arouse your interest in the facts of heredity, of environmental influence, and in the significance of the applied sciences of eugenics and euthenics.
