In this brochure, on 'Some Aspects of the Psychology of the Child', Professor Delgado, whose indefatigable activities in spreading a knowledge of psycho-analysis
in Spanish-speaking countries is well known, takes the occasion to apply its teachings to the psychology of child-life. After a general chapter on the study of the child's mind, two are devoted to the genetic significance of infantile experience and the formation of personality and character respectively. Then follows one on psycho-analysis in the school, about which the author appears to be optimistic. He asks for a special branch of the medical service to be trained in what he terms 'Psycho-pedanalysis' (psicopedanálisis). In the last chapter a philosophy of life is sketched on the basis of individual psychology.
