Abridgement Of Mental Philosophy

The book ""Abridgement Of Mental Philosophy: Including The Three Departments Of The Intellect, Sensibilities, And Will"" by Thomas Cogswell Upham was published in 1864. The book is a condensed version of Upham's larger work on mental philosophy and covers the three main areas of the human psyche: intellect, sensibilities, and will. The book begins by examining the nature of the human intellect, including the processes of perception, memory, and reasoning. It then moves on to explore the sensibilities, or the emotional and moral aspects of the human mind, including topics such as conscience, sympathy, and love. Finally, the book delves into the will, or the ability to make choices and decisions, and discusses issues such as free will and moral responsibility.Throughout the book, Upham uses a clear and concise writing style to explain complex philosophical concepts in a way that is accessible to readers of all levels. He also draws on a variety of sources, including classical philosophy, Christian theology, and contemporary scientific research, to provide a comprehensive overview of the human mind and its workings.Overall, ""Abridgement Of Mental Philosophy"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the nature of the human mind and its place in the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
