"The field of child psychology is almost as old as is the field of experimental psychology. It is believed that a proper and systematic presentation of the problems of child psychology, presented as problems experimentally investigated, will demonstrate a field of scientific research surprisingly full of accomplishment and of promise even to some of the experts in the field itself. The main reason for this surprise is that most of the books in child psychology have been either highly specialized monographs or highly popularized elementary textbooks. Before the first edition, there hadn't been a single volume treating the entire field of child psychology which could be useful to students already acquainted with psychology and already expert in child psychology. This volume is prepared specifically for the scholar, and its form is for his maximum convenience. The topics discussed in this volume range from the methodology of child psychology to learning in children." (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2007 APA, all rights reserved).

"Shortly after the publication in 1929 of The Foundations of Experimental Psychology, it became evident that it would be physically difficult to make single-volume revisions of that book. A choice had to be made between revising in several volumes or revising major subdivisions of the original book under separate titles. The latter choice was finally made and the first step in that direction was the publication of A Handbook of Child Psychology. The publication of this volume under the title, A Handbook of General Experimental Psychology, is the second step, and the complete enterprise will be consummated with the publication of A Handbook of Social Psychology. This book examines experimental psychology by looking at adjustive and receptive processes." (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2007 APA, all rights reserved).
