The Senses and the Intellect (Classic Reprint)
A mong the Senses have been here enrolled and described with some degree of minuteness, the feelings connected with the various processes of organic life, Digestion, Respiration, c. which make up so large a part of individual happiness and misery. A systematic plan has been introduced into the description of the conscious states in general, so as to enable them to be compared and classified with more precision than heretofore. However imperfect may be the first attempt to construct a Natural History of the Feelings, upon the basis of a uniform descriptive method, the subject of Mind cannot attain a high scientific character until some progress has been made towards the accomplishment of this object. In the department of the Senses, the I nstincts, or primitive endowments of our mental constitution, are fully considered; and in endeavouring to arrive at the original foundation, or first rudiments, of Volition, a theory of this portion of the mind has been suggested. In treating of the I ntellect, the subdivision into faculties is abandoned. The exposition proceeds entirely on the Laws of A ssociation, which are exexemplified with minute detail, and followed out into a variety of applications.
