Excerpt from Mental Philosophy: Including the Intellect, Sensibilities, and Will
It is much easier to decide what a work on mental fiance ought to be, than to produce such a work. It should be comprehensive and complete, treating at all that properly pertains to Psychology, giving to every part its due proportion and development. It should treat the various topics presented, in a thorough and scientific manner. It should be conversant with the literature of the department, placing the student in' possession, not only of the true doctrines, but, to some extent also, of the history of those doctrines, showing laim what has been held and taught by others upon the points in question. In style it should be clear, perspicuous, concise, yet not so barren of ornament as to be destitute of interest to the reader.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces and explores the science of the human mind, termed mental philosophy. The author positions mental philosophy within the wider context of philosophy and metaphysics, exploring the discipline's history and examining its unique relationship with natural science. The text posits that all knowledge is ultimately gained through observation and experience and that the human mind, accessible through introspection, is a particularly fruitful area of study. The author argues that mental philosophy allows us to "observe and to know" our own minds and that an understanding of one's own mind provides a useful foundation for understanding the minds of others, creating a more empathetic society. The bookâs insights, grounded in rigorous scientific principles, form a valuable resource both for dedicated students of psychology and for those wishing to learn more about themselves and the nature of human consciousness.
