Twelve years later James submitted the manuscript of The Principles of Psychology, too voluminous to fit the series. Nevertheless, Holt published it, with the understanding that James would prepare another book, compressing the material presented in the Principles. Two years later, in 1892, James published his Psychology, Briefer Course, fulfilling the conditions of the 1878 contract.
