Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Heart of Man: An Attempt in Mental Anatomy I take the word "heart" in the highest of its popular acceptations, and employ it to denote that part of the mental organism in which emotions are experienced, desires and affections exert their force, and volitions take place. Already in my first sentence, there is an expression which would excite the contempt of many philosophers if they should happen to see it. They warn us against thinking of the Mind as made up of parts. They tell us that it is "unextended" - that it inhabits no space; and they would have us carefully guard against viewing it in the light of an organism. I must decline to acknowledge the authority of such teachers. However it may be to others, to myself, most certainly, an unextended entity is altogether unthinkable. I am compelled to employ the concept of space whenever I think of anything as having a substantive existence. To me, whatever exists in no space is nowhere, and what is nowhere is nothing. I do not aver, however, that Mind occupies space to the exclusion of Matter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
