The Physiology of the Senses; or, How and What We See, Hear, Taste, Feel and Smell.

214 pp. 8vo. A.B. Johnson is best known for The Philosophy of Human Knowledge; or, A Treatise on Language, which David Rynin called 'the most important early American work on semantics, and sees Johnson's thought echoed in Wittgenstein's positions on truth, questions, and the functionality of language.' This work explores the acquisition of knowledge using the senses, and the extent of that knowledge.
