192 pp. 12mo. Cloth spine, marbled paper over boards. An American republication of the work first printed by London's Religious Tract Society, exploring the relationship between physical sense perceptions and thought, discussing theories of physics, neurology, and other natural sciences, psychological principles like knowledge of the self and memory, language, afflictions like blindness and deafness, etc. The mind-body problem is an important one for Christianity, which tends to support Descartes's theory that the soul and the body are separate entities, and that the soul is the seat of consciousness and reason, which affords humanity the possibility of eternal salvation.
