Abstract
IN this volume, which forms one of the international scientific series, the thoughtful reader is once more called on to consider those leading positions in pśychology for which Prof. Bain has so long and so ably contended. He has here succeeded in presenting his views in language as concise, clear, and popular as the nature of his subject will permit. Whoever attaches importance to the application of scientific method to mental phenomena must welcome this popular statement of doctrines, which, if not the whole truth, are immeasurably nearer the truth than are the superstitions to which not only the uneducated, but also the great mass of the learned, are subject.
Mind and Body. The Theories of their Relation.
By Alexander Bain, Professor of Logic in the University of Aberdeen. (Henry S. King and Co., 1873.)
