Book Description
The philosopher and physician David Hartley (1705–57) published this, his most significant work, in two volumes in 1749. It is an analysis of human nature, blending philosophy, psychology and theology, and it influenced scientists, theologians, social reformers and poets, notably Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

Observations on Man: His Frame, His Duty, and His Expectations; In Two Parts
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate relationship between the human body and mind, exploring the fascinating realm of sensations, ideas, and the nature of the soul. The author, a keen observer of human nature, delves into the mechanisms of perception and the influence of external stimuli on our inner world. Set against the backdrop of 18th-century scientific and philosophical thought, the text engages with contemporary theories of vibrations and associations, drawing inspiration from renowned figures such as Sir Isaac Newton and John Locke. The author proposes a thought-provoking hypothesis, suggesting that sensations and ideas arise from the vibrations of minute particles within the nervous system. This intricate dance of vibrations, coupled with the association of ideas, forms the foundation of our understanding, emotions, memory, and imagination. The book delves into profound themes such as free will, the nature of reality, and the existence of God. The author's insights into the human experience offer a compelling lens through which to examine our own consciousness and the world around us, ultimately leading us to a deeper understanding of the intricate tapestry that connects the physical and the mental. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333048709_0
