The Mind and the Brain

Zusatztext

"The Mind and the Brain: Being the Authorised Translation of L'Âme et le Corps" by Alfred Binet is a prolonged effort to establish a distinction between what is called mind and what is called matter. Nothing is more simple than to realize this distinction when you do not go deeply into it; nothing is more difficult when you analyze it a little. At first sight, it seems impossible to confuse things so far apart as a thought and a block of stone; but on reflection, this great contrast vanishes, and other differences have to be sought which are less apparent and of which one has not hitherto dreamed.
