Synopsis

Autology: An Inductive System Of Mental Science, Whose Center Is The Will, And Whose Completion Is The Personality is a book written by David Henry Hamilton and published in 1872. The book is a comprehensive study of the human mind and its workings, with a focus on the role of the will in shaping personality. The author presents an inductive system of mental science that is based on observation and experimentation, rather than on abstract theories. The book is divided into three parts: the first part deals with the nature of the will and its relation to the mind and body; the second part explores the various faculties of the mind, such as perception, memory, and imagination; and the third part focuses on the development of the personality and the role of education in shaping it. Throughout the book, the author emphasizes the importance of self-knowledge and self-control in achieving personal growth and fulfillment. Autology is a pioneering work in the field of psychology and continues to be studied and cited by scholars to this day.A Vindication Of The Manhood Of Man, The Godhood Of God, And The Divine Authorship Of Nature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
