The Senses and the Intellect

Focusing on the foundations of scientific psychology, this treatise delves into the Senses and the Intellect, reflecting Alexander Bain's empirical approach to understanding the mind. As a key figure in the British school of empiricism alongside John Stuart Mill, Bain emphasizes knowledge derived from sensory experiences. His work, shaped during his tenure at Aberdeen, aims to provide a systematic exploration of these critical divisions, with plans to address Emotions and the Will in a subsequent volume.
