CHAPTER VI THE ORGANISM AND FOCAL CONSCIOUSNESS One great disadvantage that besets our study of conscious psychism is that the only specimen available to direct observation is the most complex and elaborate under the sun. We are in very much the same position in our investigation of psychological dynamics as we should be if we set about the study of physical dynamics and, knowing nothing of the simpler kinds of machines, such as a lever, a wheel, a crank, were compelled to begin our enquiry into mechanical principles by considering, say, a great newspaper printing-machine whirling at high speed, with all its cylinders, cog-wheels, tubular plates, shafts and cranks in rapid and complex motion, and we were to endeavour to formulate our notions of mechanical principles from that. You may well imagine how unsatisfactory the progress of our science of mechanics would be under those circumstances, and how long it would take us to discover, for instance, the simple laws of motion formulated by Galilei and Newton. The extremely complex, composite nature of the only form of psychic machine known to us by direct experience constitutes a serious handicap, and renders us naturally liable to mistake the superficial and incidental for the essential and fundamental, a type of error with which all our psychology is deeply fraught. Hence it is that in order to understand the essential and fundamental features of the operation of psychic act on we have been obliged to refer constantly to organic systems of energy reduced to their simplest expression, and to follow those psychic processes not in the soul of man only, but in that of the most rudimentary and primitive organisms, of protozoa, such as the familiar amoeba. If it be objected that we can know...

Download or read book Psyche s Knife written by Elizabeth Eowyn Nelson and published by . This book was released on 2012-03-01 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psyche's Knife examines the myth of Eros and Psyche as a metaphor for the development of soul in the psychology of women, explicating the tropes of love and power as depicted by Psyche's use of a knife in attempting to learn the identity of her lover. Nelson examines the metaphor of the knife from all angles-alchemical, sacrificial, lunar, phallic-and delves into the mythology and imagery of women and knives, connecting our deep past to our present lives and our possibilities for the future. Elizabeth Eowyn Nelson is core faculty and dissertation policy director at Pacifica Graduate Institute near Santa Barbara, California, where she has been teaching since 2002. She is coauthor of The Art of Inquiry (2005), which expresses many key ideas about research and the creative process centered on the living psyche. Her research interests focus on mythologies of feminine power, cultural expressions of the shadow, and somatic psychology. A professional writer and editor for thirty years, she is also a lifelong athlete, a certified massage therapist, and an avid student of the Tarot, runes, and archetypal astrology.

Download or read book Child psychology Vol 1 written by Vilhelm Rasmussen and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sub-title of this book is in reality illogical, for the two children who have been especially studied and who are the subject of this book, have not attended a kindergarten for any considerable period. A trial was made with the eldest child, R., when she was four years and five months old, but unsuccessfully. Before the event R. was greatly excited at the thought of playing with so many other children, and accompanied her mother expectantly. But upon her return home it was obvious that she had been disappointed, and, contrary to custom, she said very little about her experiences. “We built a house with a big door,” and “The mistress sang about a bird that flew,” was all she had to report.Desiring to form an estimate of the kindergarten, I went there one day, and, I must admit, was not favourably impressed. The mistress did not possess the necessary qualifications for her position; and as R. with good reason found the proceedings wearisome, she was, after about a month’s trial, taken away again.

Download or read book Aladdin s Lamp written by John Freely and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2009-02-17 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aladdin’s Lamp is the fascinating story of how ancient Greek philosophy and science began in the sixth century B.C. and, during the next millennium, spread across the Greco-Roman world, producing the remarkable discoveries and theories of Thales, Pythagoras, Hippocrates, Plato, Aristotle, Euclid, Archimedes, Galen, Ptolemy, and many others. John Freely explains how, as the Dark Ages shrouded Europe, scholars in medieval Baghdad translated the works of these Greek thinkers into Arabic, spreading their ideas throughout the Islamic world from Central Asia to Spain, with many Muslim scientists, most notably Avicenna, Alhazen, and Averroës, adding their own interpretations to the philosophy and science they had inherited. Freely goes on to show how, beginning in the twelfth century, these texts by Islamic scholars were then translated from Arabic into Latin, sparking the emergence of modern science at the dawn of the Renaissance, which climaxed in the Scientific Revolution of the seventeenth century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a revised and greatly expanded edition of a book first published in 1964 by Phaidon Press, and it catalogues in detail over 350 pictures painted since c. 1600. It thus complements The Early Italian Pictures by John Shearman which was published by Cambridge in 1983. The catalogue includes the work of many great painters - Domenichino, Guercino, Guido Reni, Batoni, the two Ricci, Annibale Carracci, Zuccarelli and a famous, unrivalled group of paintings by Canaletto, most of which were commissioned directly from the artist by Joseph Smith and subsequently bought with the rest of his collection by George III. A long introduction traces the history from Charles I onwards of English royal interest in Italian pictures of the seventeenth- and eighteenth-centuries.

Download or read book Applied Cognitive Psychology written by Paul Barber and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1988 Applied Cognitive Psychology draws on the psychology of perception, attention, and cognition to give an understanding of some everyday activities and skills. Paul Barber focuses on processes involved in selecting simple actions, face perception, reading, and tasks requiring attention skills. He uses practical problems as starting points for discussion, including mental overloading in air-traffic controllers, cooker-hob design, the use of Photokit/identikit, and reading from computer screens. The book also examines the strengths and limitations of the basic analytical approach of ‘information-processing’ in psychology. As well as providing a textbook for students of psychology and ergonomics, Applied Cognitive Psychology will still be welcomed by those from other disciplines – management studies, education, sports science – who need to understand skilled behaviour in applied settings.
