Comprehensive overview of the basics of psychology--with some practical tips for self improvement. The content is overall a little dated. For example, the advice on cultivating good habits seems amusingly uninformed given the vast body of work that's been done on how to form and maintain good habits since Atkinson wrote his manual. But the breadth still makes this title a good starter for folks wanting to better understand how their minds work and perhaps gain a foundation that will help ground newer research in everything from management psychology to behavioral economics.

Autorenporträt
William Walker Atkinson (5 December 1862-22 November 1932) was a multifaceted figure-an attorney, businessman, publisher, and prolific writer-who played a significant role in the early New Thought movement. Beyond his legal and commercial endeavours, he was deeply involved in occult studies and esoteric philosophy. Atkinson is believed to be the mind behind numerous works published under various pseudonyms, including Theron Q. Dumont, Swami Panchadasi, and Yogi Ramacharaka, among others. His penchant for anonymity and extensive use of pen names have contributed to his relative obscurity today, despite his recognition in past editions of Who's Who in America, Religious Leaders of America, and other reference works. Over the last three decades of his life, he authored more than 100 books, many of which have remained in circulation since the early 20th century.
