Excerpt from The Psychology of the Great War One of the plainest lessons taught by history, and one of those most substantially verified by. The present war, is that nations are not ruled by realities, but by the more or less illusory ideas which they form of these realities. The truth about an historical event may be revealed fifty years after it has taken place, but is seldom known at the time of its occurrence.

Excerpt from The Psychology of War And must therefore hope rather than promise. Perhaps, were it older, there might be no wars. It is with the confidence that that day of peace will be hastened by the diffusion of a psycho logical viewpoint that this essay has been written. There can be little claim for originality made, as its aim is to bring before the lay reader material and methods of investigation that are normally not available to him. With this some tentative formulations are given, which it is hoped may tend to correlate the hypotheses that are reviewed.

Excerpt from Psychical Phenomena and the War For material utilized in Part I, I wish especially to acknowledge my indebtedness to M. Lebon's book, The Psychology of the Great War, and to Dr. George W. Crile's Mechanistic Conception of War and Peace. The bulk of the psychological material, relating to the mind of the combatant in action, is taken from my own article on The Mind of the Soldier, first published in the Forum, January, 1916, and reprinted here, by the editor's kind permission, with considerable addi tions. The chapter dealing with the psychology of the soldier in action is (naturally) based almost entirely upon Observations on the franco-british front; and but little reference to the psychology of the American soldier is as yet possible. Doubtless many psycho logical Observations of great value will be forthcom ing, when U. S. Soldiers get into action on a vast scale.
