Discover how the mind forms ideas and how education shapes our reasoning, choices, and character.
This book offers a clear look at how thinking begins with simple apprehension, moves through concepts, and proceeds to judgment and reasoning. It contrasts formal logic with the inner mental processes that drive thought, helping readers see why education matters for reasoning and behavior.
- Learn how we form terms and concepts, and how language mirrors thought.
- See how logic and psychology are related yet separate in their aims.
- Understand how desires and passions can influence thinking, feeling, and action.
- Follow a structured path through simple apprehension, judgment, and reasoning.
Ideal for readers curious about philosophy, psychology, and education who want a practical view of how the mind works.

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.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book establishes a new inductive science of Psychology. Like natural science, the author argues, this new field must be based upon observation, experiment, and analysis while embracing the full range of human experience. Instead of relying on speculative philosophy, this book investigates the mind as a living, active phenomenon and seeks to discover the laws which govern its manifestation. The author begins by distinguishing mind from vital force and nervous force, contending that while these forces are closely correlated, they are not identical. The author further argues that the facts of psychology can be derived from four primary sources: individual consciousness, mental pathology, comparative psychology, and the results of mind as seen in language, manners, beliefs, and human history. Through these sources, the author seeks to unravel the universal laws of mental activity. Then, building upon the discoveries of physiology, the author posits that all mental processes result from a combination of a few simple principles acting upon each other. By analyzing these principles, the author claims we can trace the development of our ideas, emotions, and volitions from their most primitive origins to their most complex forms. The book concludes that the mind is neither a mere embodiment of universal reason nor a product of external circumstances but is, rather, a unique entity which retains to the last its individuality, shaped but not determined by its experiences. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
