Any man will sign a note for a thousand dollars if a revolver is held against his head... The law, however, will not hold him for the payment of the note, on the ground that it was signed under duress. A man convinced by the sheer force of logic is likely to avoid the very action which would seem to be the only natural result of the conviction thus secured. This situation is expressed by the familiar proverb, "A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still." -from "An Analysis of Deliberation" The business applications of psychology are endless: whether you're tying to entice your employees to work smarter or your customers to buy more, this early guide to the science of selling ideas and products, by a pioneer in the psychology of advertising, still has much to offer.

Far ahead of its time, this is an incredible resource for anyone who needs to convince someone to buy, sell, or concede. American psychologist and writer WALTER DILL SCOTT (1869-1955) also wrote Psychology of Public Speaking (1907) and Psychology of Advertising (1908).
