Excerpt from Live Questions in Psychology and Metaphysics: Six Lectures Selected From Those Delivered to the Classes in Cornell University [Prefatory Note. - These Lectures occur in the Courses on Psychology and Metaphysics with the History of Philosophy. As they are intended chiefly for the use of the students in my classes, and for distribution among private friends, and persons specially interested in such subjects, they are printed as they were written for delivery ; the first three occur in the Course of Lectures on Psychology; the last three are the conclusion of the Course on the History of Philosophy.] Good definitions are the best part of any science, and without them there is no accuracy or scientific comprehension anywhere. It seems to me that there are just now several subjects in the department of Psychology, which arc especially in need of somebody's services in this line. I propose in the following Lectures to do what I can to aid the cause of science, and the cause of religion and good morals also, in so far as they depend upon these subjects, by an effort at a more clear and satisfactory explanation of some of these fundamental facts and phenomena, than I have yet anywhere met with in the books that have fallen under my notice. Among them Sensation is perhaps the first in order. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
