The Findings of Natural Science Reduced to Practical Studies in Psychology

1. Man is an Individual Intelligence. This is taken as an empirical fact, patent to every intelligent individual.
The source and nature of intelligence itself need not here concern us. We may call it an ultimate that all the philosophies of the world have signally failed to explain. It is something that grows, increases or decreases, expands, becomes confused, according to the conditions of bodily organ and function, heredity, environment, personal effort and the like; but so far as we know, it is the same thing, large or small, wise or foolish. It is still, measure for measure, Individual Intelligence.
