Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The work, of wliich this is the first volume, has been many years in preparation; indeed its origin may be said to go so far back as 1836, when with the rashness of ambitious youth I planned a treatise on the Philosophy of the Mindin which the doctrines of Keid, Stewart, and Brovn were to be physiologically interpreted. In 1837 I gave a course of lectures on the subject in Fox s Chapel, Finsbury. The scheme was abandoned, partly because of a growing dissatisfaction with the doctrines of the Scotch School, and partly perhaps from a misgiving as to my physiological knowledge. Other studies and other labours occupied me until 1860, when I believed that my researches into the nervous system had placed in my hands a clue through the labyrinth of mental phenomena; and misled by the plausible supposition that the complex phenomena in Man might be better interpreted by approaching them through the simpler phenomena in A nimals, I began to collect materials for a work on Animal Psychology. This also proved to be premature.
