This early work on psychology is a fascinating read for any psychologist or historian of the science. Russell was a British philosopher and polymath who is considered as a father of analytical philosophy and mentored Ludwig Wittgenstein. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1950. In this seminal work, he presents a series of lectures which aim to reconcile the materialistic tendency of psychology with the anti-materialistic tendency of physics. Thoroughly recommended reading for professional psychologists, students and the layman alike. Contents Include: Recent Criticisms of Consciousness, Instinct and Habit, Desire and Feeling, Influence of Past History on Present Occurrences in Living Organisms, Psychological and Physical Causal Laws, Introspection, The Definition of Perception, Sensations and Images, Memory, Words and Meaning, General Ideas and Though, Belief, Truth and Falsehood, Emotions and Will, Characteristics of mental Phenomena. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
