This volume offers a wide-ranging account of human mental activity, setting out clear descriptions of the stream of thought, consciousness, time perception, memory, imagination, emotions and reason, alongside discussion of abnormal phenomena.

Along the way, the text engages with the work of thinkers and researchers including Berkeley, Binet, Bradley, Darwin, Descartes, Fechner, Galton, Helmholtz, Hume, Janet, Kant, Locke, Mill, Schopenhauer, Spinoza, Wundt and many others. Suitable for readers with an interest in classic psychological writing and the history of ideas.
