- In one major work, William James gave us the concept of "stream of consciousness" and the idea of "self," and he delved into the mysteries of habits, will, and attention. He helped us understand ourselves better, providing insights into the very fabric of our thoughts and emotions.
The story of William James is one of triumph over adversity. A tale of how personal trials can lead to profound insights and everlasting contributions. His magnum opus, 'The Principles of Psychology', remains a cornerstone in the field, reminding us of the extraordinary journey of its creator. This is part 2 of an ongoing series of videos on William James.

He suffered from periodic depression the way I did and still do. My worst bout started at the age of 28.
1:15: Yes. And some projects took even longer. One advantage of my protraced state of academic unemployment is that I can advance research projects at their natural pace.
But, mind you, that 12-year gestation period wasn't unusual for the period James lived in. Scholars were expected to produce magnum opera, and were allowed the time to do so.
WJ a marvelous example of"being creatively alive in every situation" (phrase from Wayne Dyer).
His "Will To Believe" remains the go-to essay when struggling to believe in God. I'm sure it's free to read on the net should any such struggler still be out there.
I love william james. He seemed like a really caring person. Like he didnt put scholarship above compassion in his work. I can appreciate that
He is my hero!
Im in a Phil101 class and we are discussing William James today in regards to freewill. Great video (im watching it a second time right now lol
Its awesome how his insights draw upon the philosophical.
❤❤❤2012 to 2020. I attended Mishawaka indiana I remember reading jung and he talked of William James and Nishda kintaro who influned them. Wow, who was this guy. Yes, I went down the rabbit hole. Great read, he was ahead of time. Downey California. Frank Martinez.
Why did A.I. decide to feed me this video? I don't know, but I sure am glad that it did! Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
One of those people who is definitely "worth a second look".
I'm glad you agree. Thanks for watching!
Carl G. Jung was fascinated by William James.
N o t without reason !
Danke für Ihre überzeugende "Folie des Verstehens".
Bitte schön!
Mysticism is dismissed as real by many but more and more I have found out how much it underpins our culture.
Henry gets all the attention from literary types, but William was a brilliant prose writer. For a sample, read his remarkable firsthand account of the San Francisco Earthquake.
Have you read 'Sick Souls, Healthy Minds: How William James Can Save Your Life'?
Im not a intellectual, granted I can say that I have a 6th or 8th grade education level, giving the fact that they GAVE me my high school diploma. But I was fascinated by A.A. and the occultism whicb lead me to william james varieties of religious experience. I boùght thag book back in 2016 when I was sufferi g from mental distortions. Reading ut only "fortified" by psychotic beliefs. Now Im better. And after just reading that book wether or not I understood it truly, persisting through I can say that now I can somewhat grab the gist of the book and the way its written. And its like "wow, I was reading this book completely wrong" I thikk knce I finish the book, Ill tackle priciples of psychology to improve my mental health. Hopefully it does. Lol 😅
1:09 to 1:18 Um, yes.
[video paused]
One challenging question took 13 years. Day and night awake and asleep.
Another study took 25 years, but that had to do with ancient texts and profound spiritual matters... less about mortal interpersonal relationships.
But once those were attained the net result was liberation of I'd estimate a gross 15% of functional brain processing capacity. Am not sure if people quite understand how fulfilling it is to have a mind that works like an indexed database and be all tied up in a data crunch then realize it is for all intents and purposes finally resolved.
Going back to the video.
Thank you very much. Interesting.
I agree with his statement.
good
great!
you are good! SocialNeuro you've got a way of making a YT video worth every moment! subscribing w/ pleasure! 😎
I remember where I was twelve years ago. Why is that difficult?
Is that book for sale? I collect old books I really want to buy it
"Had Freud better understood Darwin, the world would have been spared psychologists who have wandered down so many garden paths" into psychosexual confabulation and therapy.
Evolution and Human Behavior by John Cartwright
Thanks! And now for Freud...
Its really sad that the "Principles of Psychology" isn't available in Turkish, my language, so does that mean the book isn't really considered seriously in modern psychology?
Sadly, I think a lot of people have forgotten about the book, so it wouldn't surprise me that this it's no longer available in other languages. I think there is so much to learn from history!
@@socialneuroAnecdotal, but I remember talking to a psychology professor a few years ago who was listening to James' works on Audible. He said he was blown away by how well much of it had aged, at least in broad strokes, and lamented that scientists were "no longer allowed to be interesting".
Burada bir Türk'ü görmek güzel. Maalesef Türkçe bilerek entelektüel olarak gelişmen imkansız. Bu William James'in değil, Türkiye'nin bir sıkıntısı.
@@EGOPONİngilizcem olsa ne zaten kitabı alamıyorum, pdften fotokopicide bastırmak bile iç sıkıcı. Neyse, lise sonum zaten eskiden Ethica, Varlık ve Zaman falan okurdum da öyle bir eğitim sistemi icra etmişler ki sevdiğin şeylerin kutsallığını muhafaza etmek bile zor. Biraz iç dökme gibi oldu kusuruma da bakma ama şu aralar çok sıkılıyorum be, fiziğe karşı tutkum olmasa çoktan intihar etmiştim herhalde, herneyse kolay gelsin iyi akşamlar
"...that W.J. is an incapable." Looks like he forgot to write a chapter about 'imposter syndrome'!
Yes, you're right! He seems to have been a fairly modest person, which made him very approachable.
