The Presentation of Reality

Abstract

IN this little book Dr. Wodehouse (who is lecturer in philosophy in the University of Birmingham) attempts a description of knowledge from the point of view of a philosophical psychology. She avoids metaphysics as far as possible, but maintains that in all cognitive experience we come into immediate contact with objective reality, of the existence of which we have in experience an irrefutable witness, and that on all levels of cognition, sensuous or intellectual, this happens in the same way, namely, by the presentation of an object to a subject.

The Presentation of Reality.

By Dr. Helen Wodehouse. Pp. x + 163. (Cambridge: University Press, 1910.) Price 3s. net.
