Excerpt from Mental Science and Methods of Mental Culture: Designed for the Use of Normal Schools, Academies, and Private Students Preparing to Be Teachers Nature of the System - The system of philosophy here presented is similar to that of the best English and American thinkers. In its general spirit it coincides with that of Sir William Hamilton, though-it differs in many details from that illustrious author. It also agrees in spirit with much of the best German thinking on the subject of metaphysics. In its system of thought it is neither materialistic nor absolutely rationalistic, but aims to unite what is true in both of these schemes of philosophy. It holds that the mind is an entity distinct from matter and-the author of thought, rather than that thought is a function of matter, as taught by the modern materi alistic school of thinkers. It does not ignore, however, the physical basis of perception, and it therefore accepts one of the established facts of the materialistic school. But it rises above this school by assuming that the mind is an original source of truth, and that it can originate and compre hend necessary and universal principles. It thus rises from the lowest facts of materialism to the highest facts of rationalistic philosophy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
