Excerpt from Outlines of Psychology This little book does not pretend to be a treatise upon psychology, but an outline of principles logically arranged so that the student of psychology and of the theory of teaching may use it as a guide-book in directing his investigations upon this subject. Definitions and principles are not here extensively elucidated, but the facts of the science are plainly stated in their relation, to each other, with ample suggestions to the student who desires to make further investigations. It has been the aim of the author to incorporate the cardinal principles that underlie all empirical psychology, and to show the inseparable relationship existing between these principles and the successful practice of the teacher. As "science is knowledge properly classified," it has been the aim of the author to show the co-ordination and subordination of every topic, suggesting also the order in which each should be studied. That there is a philosophy of education is now generally admitted, though not universally. The application of universal principles to teaching is based upon such a philosophy. To aid the young teacher to discover and realize that psychology is not an isolated science, the author has appended other outlines and suggestive articies showing the application of psychological principles.

Outline of Theoretical Psychology discusses basic philosophical problems in the discipline and profession of psychology. The author addresses such topics as what it means to be human in psychology; how psychological knowledge is possible and what it consists of; the role of social justice in psychology; and how aesthetic experience could help us to understand the human condition. Proposing possible solutions to a range of such issues, Thomas Teo situates theoretical questions within traditional branches of philosophical inquiry: ontology, epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics. This book argues that in order to improve psychology as a discipline and in practice, psychologists must reconceive the unit of psychological analysis, looking beyond individual capacity and even experience. By engaging with these basic philosophical problems, Teo demonstrates how psychology can avoid its common pitfalls and continue as a force for resistance and the good.
