Gustave Le Bons Meisterwerk in zweisprachiger Ausgabe! Gustave Le Bon's masterpiece in a bilingual edition! Deutsch: Was passiert mit dem Individuum, wenn es sich in einer Gruppe wiederfindet? Wie ist es zu erklären, dass intelligente Menschen sich in der Masse zu Dingen hinreißen lassen, die sie als Einzelne niemals tun würden? Gustave Le Bon beschrieb 1895 in seinem Standardwerk diese Mechanismen. Es ist erstaunlich und spricht für den Autor, dass die eingängig erklärte Analyse zeitlos wirkt und die Hörer den Eindruck gewinnen, das Buch sei tatsächlich viel jünger.

¿Por qué hablar de la maldad cuando tendríamos que ocuparnos del lado noble y bueno de la vida? Tal vez porque enfrentamos al mal todos los días y debemos ser fuertes y estar preparados para que no nos hagan daño las envidias, los enojos, las frustraciones y, sobre todo, para no padecer sus efectos, pues todos somos propensos a sentir la ira, el rencor: la esencia de la maldad.

Жизнь американского философа Уильяма Джеймса (1842—1910), ведущего представителя прагматизма и функционализма, которого принято называть "отцом современной психологии", не была богата событиями, не считая того, что он дважды удостаивался чести возглавить Американскую психологическую ассоциацию, основал в Гарварде, где бессменно преподавал, первую в США лабораторию прикладной психологии, а на склоне лет увлекся спиритизмом. Но зато после смерти великого ученого начались приключения его теорий, которые то опровергали и низвергали, то вновь возносили на пьедестал, то благополучно забывали — чтобы вернуться к ним десятилетия спустя.
