1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in
affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text
and artwork.
Almost all the existing modern systems of Ethics deal with formal
definitions, and at bottom repeat more or less the same thing about
them in slightly different words. In this work these are a side
issue, and therefore are treated briefly. Their treatment in
Section I is based upon the author's theoretical works the Theory
of Order and the Theory of Reality, but will be intelligible to
those who are not acquainted with those works. The chief concern is
moral teaching - that is, the practical element.
This little book is not a text-book of psychology. It is
exclusively concerned with one particular psychological problem, a
problem, however, that stands at the very centre of psychology. The
relations between mind and body are analysed; that is to say, the

is the mind? What is the body? What are the relations between mind
and body? But it is only the third problem which is extensively
dealt with; the first two are only briefly defined.
