It is a most interesting point of view of the new psy- chology that Self, which used to be thought one and indi- visible, is irTTeality a very complex and multiple affair. Each one of us has many selves, ~and they do not live in harmony, but make war upon one another. My self is ^ not only my body and my appetites, but it is whatever I care for, think about, love, or hate ; in short, whatever is ] a real part of my inner life. Honor and reputation are more vitally a part of me than is my arm, w...hich I may leave upon a surgeon's table without feeling that my self has suffered any serious hurt or diminution. Professor\ William James, our most eminent American psychologist, distinguishes four. Selves: a material self, a social self, a spiritual self, and a pure ego; and he discusses all our possible activities under the head of self-seeking and self-preservation. Nothing is said about self-sacrifice. The word does not occur in the index to the two big vol- umes. And the reason is that, scientifically speaking, there is no such thing.
