Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Winds of Doctrine: Being an Examination of the Modern Theories of Automatism and Evolution The substance of the following pages was written in 1874, shortly after the meeting of the British Association at Belfast. That the publication has been so long deferred, is due to causes in great measure beyond my own control, into any discussion of which it is unnecessary to enter. The essays are now offered to those interested in these enquiries, with the intention of showing that those purely physical theories of life and mind, that have of late years been promulgated on high authority, and with unhesitating confidence, and have obtained such extensive credence even amongst thoughtful men, are simply untenable and unscientific, and are exercising a mischievous and benumbing influence in every domain of thought. As these chapters were at first intended for serial publication, it has been thought advisable to preserve, as far as possible, the original plan; notwithstanding that this necessarily entails some want of consecutiveness in certain parts of the argument.
