Synopsis

This book explores the foundational concepts of psychology outside of philosophical or theoretical schools of thought. It steers clear of historic distinctions between physical and metaphysical explanations of consciousness. Instead, the author argues that true understanding in this field can only be found through direct observation of real-world, human experiences. The book's main contribution is its proposal of a set of principles to guide the investigation of mental phenomena. The author holds that the exploration of conscious thought must include the subject's perspective in order to provide an account of real, rather than conceptual, experience. Furthermore, the author argues that external observation of behavior is not sufficient to develop a robust understanding of human psychology. The author of this book makes a compelling case for introspection and the direct examination of human experience as a scientific method in its own right. By seeking to look beyond the limitations of the physical and the purely mental, the author provides a practical set of principles for understanding the actual content and true nature of the human experience.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
