Synopsis
A detailed study of the mind’s will, intellect, and personality, offering a new approach to mental science.
This comprehensive work analyzes how the will drives action, how the affections shape behavior, and how the intellect and conscience interact with the mind’s deepest self. It presents a distinctive framework that ties liberty, choice, and personality to the structure of mental life, with a focus on how each faculty develops from essential activity and intelligence.
The volume is organized as a practical text for students, ministers, professionals, and general readers, with clear chapters and sections. It aims to illuminate the nature of knowledge, the limits of understanding, and the role of Providence in guiding human thought within the laws of nature.
- Clear explanations of the will, choice, and liberty, and how they relate to other faculties.
- Sections on the affections, intellect, and conscience, showing how they arise from the will.
- A practical appendix that engages with key thinkers in mental science and philosophy.
Ideal for readers of philosophy, theology, and cognitive science who want a structured, historically grounded view of mind and personality.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an inductive investigation into mental science, exploring the faculties that enable us to act and know. It provides a comprehensive system of mental science, examining the will, affections, intellect, and conscience as substantive faculties that combine to form a complete personality. The author argues that the mind is essentially spiritual, vital, and dynamic, and that the will is the essence of the mind, generating its own qualities as faculties that complete the personality. This system of mental science stands out by starting with the elements of essential activity and essential intelligence, which combine to produce the whole nature of the mind by combinations and development. The book's insights challenge traditional notions of mental science, offering a fresh perspective on the nature of the mind and its relationship to God and nature. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
