Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mind and Its Place in Nature I shall no doubt be blamed by certain scientists, and, I am afraid, by some philosophers, for having taken serious account of the alleged facts which are investi gated by Psychical Researchers. I am wholly imponi tent about this. The scientists in question seem to me to confuse the Author of Nature with the Editor of Nature; or at any rate to suppose that there can be no productions of the former which would not be accepted for publication by the latter. And I see no reason to believe this. I am only too well aware how inadequate the book is to its rather ambitious title. Many subjects which ought to have been discussed are not touched upon; and those subjects which are discussed are not exhausted, even if the reader be so. But it is the best that I can do at present; and I hope that some parts of it, at any rate, may form starting-points for fruitful controversies among philosophers, psychologists, biologists and psychical researchers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Place of Mind in Nature and Intuition in Man: A Lecture That the universe we see around us was not always there, is so little disputed, that every philosophy and every faith undertakes to tell how it came to be. They all assume, as the theatre of their problem, the field of space where all objects lie, and the track of time where events have reached the Now. But into these they carry, to aid them in representing the origin of things, such interpreting conceptions as may be most familiar to the knowledge or fancy of their age: first, the flat of Almighty We'll, which bade the void be filled, so that the light kindled, and the waters swayed, and the earth stood fast beneath the vault of sky; next, when the sway of poetry and force had yielded to the inventive arts, the idea of a contrim'ng and adapting power, building and balancing the worlds to go smoothly and keep ti me together, and stocking them with self-moving and sensitive machines; and now, since physiology has got to the front, the analogy of the seed or germ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Phreno-Physiology; Human Nature: The Evolution of Mind and Its Instruments Three hundred years before Christ, Aristotle wrote the first treatise on the mind. As he knew nothing of the uses of the nerves or the brain, he was forced to draw all his knowledge of the mind from his own internal consciousness, which he assumed to be a spirit. His system and method, with unessential modifications, has been taught, under the names of psychology and mental philosophy, more than a thousand years, in all our higher institutions of learning. It is a science of the mind with the organs of the mind left out. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lessons From Nature: As Manifested in Mind and Matter It is too generally taken as denoting the assemblage of phenomena external to and apart from the human mind, which none the less is one of the most important objects which presents itself to our perception. Hence arises a necessary imperfection. But a worse evil follows. Nature, taken in this limited sense, is often made use of to explain that which has been tacitly excluded from it. Thus it is that the facts and processes of Reason are apt to be first ignored in order that they may be afterwards treated as if the mere phenomena of irrational nature were sufficient to explain them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life in Mind Conduct: Studies of Organic in Human Nature So brief is the record of historical time in comparison with unrecorded and forgotten time, so fabulous and false for the most part most so-called histories, that there are no sound data on which to ground a true knowledge of the remote human past. If men were ever as wise then as they are now, it is plain that we should not know it. Nor are the data adequate to warrant a safe prediction of the future fortunes of humanity on earth. Whether its past career has been a succession of alternating developments and degenera tions, or a series of progresses in one place alternating with regresses elsewhere, yet with a gradual advance on the whole, even that is uncertain. To modern optimism, proud of present and sure of future human progress, Plato's fanciful notion Of recurring evolutions and dissolutions of the same state of things in periodical revolutions of time will be wholly unwelcome.
