It is thus clear that our Method, while availing itself of the indispensable aid of subjective analysis, has also to call upon objective analysis on a very extensive scale, since every mental fact, is at once a state of Feeling and a state of the Organism. While the order and genesis of mental facts are not wholly laid bare to Introspection, their significance is wholly hidden from Observation. The physiologist could not stir a step in interpreting the facts of the sentient mechanism were he not incessantly translating them into facts of Feeling. Without the illumination of Introspection he could see nothing but molecular movements in neural processes. Thus do subjective and objective analysis go hand in hand. Each has its advantages and limitations. The physiologist observes and classifies the activities of the organism, assigning these grouped classes to particular systems and organs, reducing thus the facts of function to facts of structure. Having succeeded in reducing particular functions to general functions, and func j tions to properties of tissues, he attempts a synthetic reconstruction in which the facts observed are seen to be consequences of the factors. The procedure of the psychologist is analogous, but from another station. He studies the facts and laws of Experience, to which the facts and laws of the Mechanism are subordinate. He therefore begins by observing and classifying the various forms of Experience, reducing them to elementary Feelings, and these again to their conditions, namely, the organic activities and the cosmic and social environment.
