Originally published in 1928 this short essay looks two rival theories of the time, both hypothetical, and explores which one 'better fits the facts'. Whether memory depends on "enduring traces" in brain structure (to use the language of Professor Semon), or whether it depends on records in "psychical structure" (to use the language of Professor McDougall). Today it can be read and enjoyed in its historical context.
Part of the 'Psychology Library Editions' series, this volume is part of a 27 volume set which brings together a series of previously out-of-print titles, written by a range of authors from diverse backgrounds, many of them now leading experts in their field. The majority of titles were originally published in the 1970s and 1980s and reflect early research in a number of key areas, some of which are still current today.
First published in 1927, the original blurb reads: "Scientists are beginning to believe there is some immaterial thing which performs certain functions that the material mechanism of the brain is powerless to perform. It is the purpose of this book to explain what that immaterial thing is and how it functions. The Mind and Its Mechanism deals with a theory that may conceivably influence the study of psychology, and will interest not only psychologists, but physiologists, physicists and biologists." Now back in print, this title can be read and enjoyed in its historical context.
