A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This brochure is addressed to physicians and laymen. Comparatively fe7u physicians and fewer laymen have a satisfactory view of the relationship of brain to mind, and thus a concise treatise upon the subject containing sufficient relevant facts to indicate the present status of our knowledge, must surely have a right to live, especially in view of the recent revival of the materialistic doctrine of mind. The plan of the work, in the main, has been to cite facts ratJ ier than present arguments, and to establish these facts by the best of references. In the first chapter some general principles are applied to the claims of materialism, while the second and third chapters presefit a general -outline of the development and functioning of the brain. Chapter IV presents data having reference to the theory that some part of the brain is the seat of the mind or is most subservient to thought activity. Owing to the desirableness of brevity as an attractive feature to a large class of lay readers, some interesting deductions have been ojnitted, especially in regard to the data inC hapters Vand VI. These I hope to point out in a psychological treatise. Tiie numbers in the text point to references given at the end of the book, where a short glossary for lay readers will also be found. J.
