Excerpt from An Introduction to the Psychological Problems of Industry
AN increasing number of persons - works managers, politicians, trade unionists, welfare-workers and students - has become deeply interested in industrial psychology. In this book the author has attempted to bring together and develop much that may legitimately be discussed under that heading. No one will deny the difficulty of treating this subject in a dispassionate manner, but every endeavour has been made to deal with the more vexed questions in as impartial a spirit as is humanly possible. If the attempt has not been successful, then it can at least be claimed that the path has been made easier for my successor. What is not claimed, however, is that this present work is more than an introduction to an admittedly complex subject: the time is hardly ripe for a complete text-book in industrial psychology.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book thoroughly analyzes the then-emerging field of industrial psychology, which attempts to apply the latest scientific research on psychology to the working world. It sets out to define the concept of industrial fatigue and ways to eliminate it. The author argues that the issue of worker fatigue is not a simple one, and that its root causes may lie in monotony and a lack of passion for one's work, as well as in the physical demands of the job. The author believes that through the use of rest periods, scientifically managed work schedules, and enhanced job satisfaction, managers can dramatically increase worker productivity and personal satisfaction. In addition to its practical applications, the book also explores the fascinating philosophical and social implications of the industrial revolution and its impact on the lives of workers.
