This book is not a contribution to psychology, but an attempt to use psychological theories of character as a platform for practical teaching
with a definite ethico-religious aim. Trait Theories, Habit Theories, Pattern Theories, Factor Theories, Self Theories, are surveyed, but the view which seems most satisfactory to the author is designated as 'Character as Effective Functioning', and it is on this view that he builds up his practical advice for social reform and education.
