Mental Conflicts And Misconduct / Edition 1

by William Healy

Overview

First published in 1999. This is Volume IX of nineteen in the Abnormal and Clinical Psychology series. Written in 1928 this is a study of conduct and the causing of misconduct. The authors seek to establish that an important field is opened before us, especially interesting because of the revelation (a) of potent subconscious mental mechanisms working according to definite laws of mental life, and (b) of types of hidden early experiences which definitely evoke these mental processes that are forerunners of misconduct.
