Mind and its Mechanism

<p>First published in 1927, the original blurb reads: "Scientists are beginning to believe there is some <i>immaterial</i> thing which performs certain functions that the material mechanism of the brain is powerless to perform.</p><p>It is the purpose of this book to explain what that immaterial thing is and how it functions. </p><p>The Mind and Its Mechanism deals with a theory that may conceivably influence the study of psychology, and will interest not only psychologists, but physiologists, physicists and biologists." </p><p>Now back in print, this title can be read and enjoyed in its historical context.</p> <p>1.
