Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Philosophy of the Mind
This of itself were difficulty enough, but a new Oh stacle arises: the mind can exert but one act at a time. When we think of any one thing, we are forced to quit our former thought; by the very act of re?ecting we lose the emotions or the ideas which we would wish to fix and to analyse; they are no longer present to us we can only recall them by an effort of memory.
