    About this ebook

    Published in 1899, this collection of lectures given by James to teachers and students over the course of almost a decade was one of his most successful and popular works.  It remains relevant today—indeed, in its espousal of freedom of thought and tolerance for different points of view, it may be more relevant than ever.
