HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
The January number of the International Journal of Ethics is of particular interest to Harvard students of philosophy from the fact that it contains a long review by one of our professors, Josiah Royce, of a recent important publication by another professor, William James. Professor Royce commends the "Principles of Psychology" for its novel suggestions, its new outlook upon psychology, its wide range of comparative study and the help which it gives one towards desired many-sidedness of insight. He characterizes the method of the book as a curiously intermediate one among the various possible views as to the nature of the mind, standing half way between the mind theory on the one hand, with which it shares the notion of the unity of the thinker, even although this thinker is but momentary, and the hypothesis of the atomic idea, on the other hand, with which it shares the tendency to accept and to describe in relatively simple terms the empirical facts of the passing consciousness.
Other contributions are by D. G. Ritchie of Oxford, J. H. Muirhead of London, Professor Jodl, Professor F. H. Giddings, W. L. Sheldon of St. Louis, Mrs. M. McCollum, John Dewey, etc.
