What you should know about your sensations

About the author
Born in 1900, Grace Kinckle Adams wrote accessible books on psychology and human behavior during the early twentieth century. Library records identify her as the author of Psychology: Science or Superstition? (1931) and Your Child Is Normal: The Psychology of Young Childhood (1934), and some records list her as Grace Adams, Ph.D.
Her work ranges from broad introductions to psychology to more focused books on sensation, personality, and child development. Project Gutenberg lists How Glands Affect Personality and What You Should Know About Your Sensations, which shows her interest in explaining scientific and psychological ideas for everyday readers rather than only for specialists.
Available records also connect her with the later name Grace Kinckle Adams Hutter, and memorial records give her lifespan as 1900 to 1957. Reliable biographical details about her life remain limited online, but her surviving books suggest a writer committed to bringing psychology to a wide audience in a clear, approachable way.
