Abstract
IT is with no small satisfaction that we notice the issue of this work in the English language. It has already remained much too long in the German and French tongues only; and it speaks ill for the enterprise of British publishers that now the name of Appleton appears upon the cover. For, although comparisons as a rule are invidious, in the present instance there can be no doubt that the work in question holds the first place in the literature of the subject with which it deals. And since the study of infant psychology was inaugurated by M. Taine and Mr. Darwin, it has become so popular a branch of scientific literature that an English translation of a “Die Seele des Kindes” must be an assured success, even from a commercial point of view. The Mind of the Child. Part I. The Senses and the Will; Observations concerning the Mental Development of the Human Being in the First Year of Life. By W. Preyer, Professor of Physiology in Jena. Translated from the original German by H. W. Brown. "International Education Series." (New York: Appleton and Co. London: Whittaker and Co. 1888).
