    My best thanks are due to Professor Stout, who first suggested that I should deal with the psychology of esthetics, and who has occasionally discussed with me some of the problems here mentioned ; to Mr. EH. Bullough of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, for a critical reading of the typoscript, and also for the great help which I have derived from his pub- lished articles; and to my wife, for frequent assist- ance in dealing with materials obtained from my own experiments. C. Wee PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION. In this new edition two chapters have been added on Music and Rhythm, and a number of emendations and additions have been made elsewhere.
