Kessinger Publishing is the place to find hundreds of thousands of rare and hard-to-find books with something of interest for everyone!

Lectures on Psychology, for the two-fold purpose of forestalling the expectation of finding the fulness and proportions of a complete treatise and of allowing myself a little more ease and latitude in the discussion of some of the points, than the proprieties of a regularly scientific presentation of facts arid principles would allow. The most conspicuous feature of the works hitherto published in Mental Philosophy or on Metaphysical Subjects, under any name, is the frequency with which abstract terms are used. I presume that if we should examine the works professing to treat of Psychology or the Philosophy of Mind we should find that ninetenths at least, of all their discussions are occupied with either ideas, or the faculties of the mind.
