About the author

William James

William James

1842–1910

A pioneering thinker who helped shape both modern psychology and American philosophy, he wrote with unusual warmth about belief, habit, experience, and the restless workings of the mind. His books still feel fresh because they ask practical questions about how people live, choose, and make meaning.
