Abstract
The resemblance of this chapter’s title to that of William James’s classic volume on religion is deliberate. This minor plagiarism was prompted, in part, by a reviewer’s comments on the newly republished edition of James’s Principles of Psychology (Adelson, 1982). By authoring this first (and only) comprehensive and integrated textbook of psychology, James became, in this reviewer’s estimation, the final chronicler of the last time in history when one man could know everything in the field. Since then, most of us have engaged in a more or less intense struggle with a psychological elephant that simply cannot be grasped all at once. However, despite our progressive specialization and fragmentation, many psychologists retain a desire to return the field to a unified state. The integration of knowledge, although ever more elusive, remains a compelling ideal.
