**************
Socrates
Or the Emancipation of Mankind
H F Carlill
Originally published in 1927
"One of the most brilliant and important of a remarkable series." Westminster Gazette
This volume examines the differences between humans and animals and discusses the freedom that a proper understanding of psychology will bring to the human race. The author argues that the whole psycho-physical organism will be regarded as what it is - a mechanism full of inherited tendencies and untapped energies which needs to be consciously adjusted and controlled.

D F Fraser-Harris

"His arguments, clearly and ably presented, hold our interest." Clarion
"Shows that the doctors do not as yet know much about the subject." Queen

Sisyphus or the Limits of Psychology
M Jaeger
Originally published in 1929.
"Much acumen and knowledge. All students of psychology should read it." Manchester Guardian
This volume argues that Psychology (although a "young" science in 1929) has just as an important role to play as Physics and Chemistry, because it affects the ordinary person and is not merely limited to the scientific community. The opportunities is provides, as well as its limits, are discussed.

C J Patten
