About this book
Mary F. Porter, a graduate nurse who taught the subject at Highland Hospital in Asheville, North Carolina, wrote this short textbook in 1921. Her foreword argues that a patient should leave hospital with the will to get well, rid of what she calls a sick attitude, and that a nurse works for health of body and mind together.
Chapters begin with what psychology is, then consciousness, the nervous system, instinct, memory, emotion, reason, will and habit. Later ones deal with departures from normal mental processes, attention, and seeing things from the patient's point of view.
