Mental Fatigue, by Tsuru Arai (1886 - 1915)
Published as a doctoral thesis, the human capacity for sustained effort in mental work and the occurrence of exhaustion has been examined in a series of experiments by Tsuru Arai, who also compiled the conclusions by other studies in this volume alongside her own tabulated results. (Summary by leon harvey)

Prooflistening level: Standard
Prospective PLs, please see the Guide for Proof-listeners.

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process unless you are the BC or PL. Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

I can do this one! I looked up the author and she had a fascinating, if tragically short life. Perfect for Asian American/Pacific Islander History Month!

You are welcome to join in. I can only wish she produced more literature of her research, but at least she left a good contribution for the common good in this little book
