This article literally appraises the books "The Psychology of Nationality and Internationalism," by W.B. Pillsbury and "The Psychology of Nations," by G.E. Partridge. While nationality is the theme, the mood of war is the incentive to its discussion; the nation at war shadows if not overshadows the nation at peace. War is much more than an incident or an institution or the claim of an instinct, in that it is a social manifestation of high complexity. It roots deep in social origins, and bears the marks of evolution no less in causes and incentives and warrants and attitudes, than in the conduct of warfare and Us restrictions. The war-mind of nations enters into national psychology as formatively as the peace-mind.
