Originally published in 1952, this book forms the second of two volumes based on the Gifford Lectures delivered at the University of Edinburgh in 1919 and 1921. The first volume, Mind and Matter, was originally published in 1931.

This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in philosophy, psychology and theories of knowledge.…mehr
