Publisher's Synopsis
The Philosophy of Instinct and Reason is a philosophical treatise written by John Stevenson Bushnan in 1837. In this book, Bushnan explores the relationship between instinct and reason, and their roles in shaping human behavior and thought. He argues that instinct is a natural, innate impulse that guides animal behavior, while reason is a learned ability that allows humans to think critically and make decisions based on logic and evidence.Bushnan examines the origins of instinct and reason, tracing their development from the earliest forms of life to the present day. He also considers the ways in which these two forces interact and influence each other, and how they have shaped human culture and society throughout history.Throughout the book, Bushnan draws on a wide range of philosophical, scientific, and literary sources to support his arguments. He also provides numerous examples and case studies to illustrate his points, making the book both informative and engaging.Overall, The Philosophy of Instinct and Reason is a thought-provoking exploration of two fundamental aspects of human nature, and their complex relationship with each other and the world around us.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
