This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1894 edition. Excerpt: ... QUESTIONS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR THE STUDY OF THE THEORY OF CONCENTRATION. The Theory of Concentration as presented in these pages is a working hypothesis of a doctrine of education: a hypothesis to be proved or disproved, in part, or as a whole. The following questions and suggestions are for the purpose of assisting students in their scientific investigation of the theory.
