Lectures on Metaphysics and Logic V1 is a book written by William Hamilton, a Scottish philosopher, in which he explores the fundamental concepts of metaphysics and logic. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on metaphysics and the second part on logic.In the first part, Hamilton discusses the nature of reality, the existence of God, and the relationship between mind and matter. He also delves into the concept of causality and the nature of free will.In the second part, Hamilton explores the principles of logic, including the laws of thought, the nature of judgment, and the principles of inference. He also discusses the relationship between logic and language, and the role of logic in scientific reasoning.Throughout the book, Hamilton draws on the work of other philosophers, including Aristotle, Kant, and Hegel, to support his arguments and provide a comprehensive overview of the subject matter. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both students and scholars of philosophy.1865. Volume 1 of 2. Metaphysics. The lectures found in this volume constitute the first portion of the Biennial Course which the lamented author was in the habit of delivering during the period of his occupation of the Chair of Logic and Metaphysics in the University of Edinburgh. The author himself, adopting the Kantian division of the mental faculties into those of Knowledge, Feeling and Conation, considers the philosophy of mind as comprehending, in relation to each of these, the three great subdivisions of psychology, or the science of the phenomena of mind; nomology, or the science of its laws; and ontology, or the science of results and inferences.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

1865. Volume 1 of 2. Metaphysics. The lectures found in this volume constitute the first portion of the Biennial Course which the lamented author was in the habit of delivering during the period of his occupation of the Chair of Logic and Metaphysics in the University of Edinburgh. The author himself, adopting the Kantian division of the mental faculties into those of Knowledge, Feeling and Conation, considers the philosophy of mind as comprehending, in relation to each of these, the three great subdivisions of psychology, or the science of the phenomena of mind; nomology, or the science of its laws; and ontology, or the science of results and inferences.
Dr Hamilton comes from a background of clinical and academic general practice. His medical career began in hospital medicine, including 2 ? years as a physician in Malawi, followed by 11 years as a principal (and senior partner) in general practice. He is now a full-time primary care researcher, funded by the NHS. His main research interest is in diagnosis in primary care, particularly that of cancer, and he recently completed three diagnostic studies for the Department of Health on colorectal, prostate and lung cancers. The colorectal results in particular have borne fruit, in that further studies on a tool for earlier diagnosis of this cancer have been funded by the DoH.
Dr Hamilton is a founder member of the NRCI Primary Care Studies Development Group (the umbrella organisation for cancer studies in primary care) and the NICE Guideline Development Group for CFS/ME. He has written over 50 peer-reviewed publications, largely in the field of diagnosis, with cancer being the largest topic. Dr Hamilton also co-edited the 2nd edition of 'Orthopaedics in Primary Care', which involved the key skill of translating orthopaedic surgeons language into English! His writing is not just the dry format of research papers: he has written editorials for the BMJ and BJGP, lighter pieces for the back pages of the BJGP and a lengthy piece on constipation for BMJ learning!
As well as his medical qualifications he has a certificate in literature (with merit!) from the University of Exeter.
