Book excerpt: Individuals who are facing declining health and eventual death experience intense emotional and psychological challenges. Yet mental health disciplines like psychology and psychiatry have not been well represented in the end-of-life areas of practice. This book offers mental health practitioners invaluable information about the choices that people must make regarding how they will die, or how they will resist dying, and about the ethical issues involved in making those choices. Offering a presentation of the major moral, value-based, and ethical principles that guide end-of-life decision making, including autonomy, beneficence, mercy, and justice, the author also reviews the crucial elements of informed consent, competence, and other issues that guide the American legal system's stance on this controversial debate. The book articulates the role and functions that mental health practitioners--particularly psychologists--can fulfill as members of end-of-life interdisciplinary teams to help individuals interact more fully with their loved ones and make real decisions on a path toward increasing the probability of death with dignity.

This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nature of Mind and Human Automatism The basis of the following work was written some eight or nine years ago during my student days at the medical school, and afterwards served as a graduation thesis. Having been urged to publish this thesis by my friends, it was enlarged between two and three years ago to its present size. I do not think that the views ex pressed in the earlier essay have been changed in any important particular, though the phraseology has been in many passages altered, partly to make it harmonize with the conventional forms of expression used generally by writers on this subject, and partly because mature reflec tion made me aware that some of the original terms and phrases employed either did not correctly explain my meaning, or were lacking in precision and couse quently capable of different interpretations. Many points which were of necessity merely touched upon in the earlier essay and hence liable to misinterpretation, have been since greatly expanded, and, especially in the chapter on self-determination, explained more fully, extended reasons being given for the conclusions ex pressed. The final chapter, on Materialism, has been entirely added. As I have pursued my studies on this subject, the views of other writers have been so far in corporated and criticised as has been thought would make the subject-matter clearer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of Things in Themselves By the 'problem of things in themselves' I mean simply the problem as to the existence and nature of things as they are for themselves, independently of a perceiver. It is a problem because, in the first place, the very existence of things independently of a perceiver (or, outside of experience, human and superhuman) has been denied by some, and seems to demand argument; and in the second place, because those who believe in their existence have ascribed to them, as they exist outside of our experience, all sorts of varying natures. The term 'things in themselves' does not rightly connote an existence of a different sort from that which the data of our experience have, or from that which we naturally ascribe to unperceived things. That is a matter for argument, one way or the other. The table-as-it-exists-for-itself-when-no-one-sees-it may have, as we naively suppose it to have, the same qualities which it has as a datum of my experience - brownness, smoothness, etc. But even so, has it not other, unperceived qualities? Would an analysis of the perception-datum exhaust the analysis of the thing as it exists for itself? When we study the mechanism of perception new light is thrown on the matter. We discover that some, at least, of the qualities of our perception-data seem to be dependent on the nature of our organisms and to vary with them. How then can they be qualities of the things out there beyond our organisms? Do things have in themselves some but not all of the qualities they have in our experience? Here are two possibilities: namely, that things have in themselves more qualities, or that they have fewer qualities, than can be found in our perceptions of them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Phreno-Physiology; Human Nature: The Evolution of Mind and Its Instruments Three hundred years before Christ, Aristotle wrote the first treatise on the mind. As he knew nothing of the uses of the nerves or the brain, he was forced to draw all his knowledge of the mind from his own internal consciousness, which he assumed to be a spirit. His system and method, with unessential modifications, has been taught, under the names of psychology and mental philosophy, more than a thousand years, in all our higher institutions of learning. It is a science of the mind with the organs of the mind left out. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Place of Mind in Nature and Intuition in Man: A Lecture That the universe we see around us was not always there, is so little disputed, that every philosophy and every faith undertakes to tell how it came to be. They all assume, as the theatre of their problem, the field of space where all objects lie, and the track of time where events have reached the Now. But into these they carry, to aid them in representing the origin of things, such interpreting conceptions as may be most familiar to the knowledge or fancy of their age: first, the flat of Almighty We'll, which bade the void be filled, so that the light kindled, and the waters swayed, and the earth stood fast beneath the vault of sky; next, when the sway of poetry and force had yielded to the inventive arts, the idea of a contrim'ng and adapting power, building and balancing the worlds to go smoothly and keep ti me together, and stocking them with self-moving and sensitive machines; and now, since physiology has got to the front, the analogy of the seed or germ.

Download or read book William James Essays in Radical Empiricism written by H. G. Callaway and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-06-06 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: H.G. Callaway’s critical edition of William James's Essays in Radical Empiricism evaluates this classic work of American philosophy and the pragmatist tradition partly on the basis of the functional psychology of James's magnum opus, The Principles of Psychology. The edition also brings in later, Darwinian-functionalist, American psychology—which James did much to inspire—and contemporary developments in functional, cognitive psychology and neuroscience. James’s own text has been annotated throughout to render his references and theoretical concerns explicit and to briefly indicate points of criticism. The edition features an expanded bibliography that includes both historical and contemporary sources, as well as a new, comprehensive index. The chief arguments of the edition center on criticism of James's claims for "radical empiricism," his doctrine of "pure experience," and the doubtful role as evidence James attributed to stand-alone introspection and Jamesian “retrospection.” Enlisting results from the logic of relations, contemporary empiricism, historical and contemporary developments in cognitive psychology, and experimental neuroscience, Callaway argues for the importance of James on functional relations—to be interpreted in the manner of the scientific naturalism prominent in The Principles of Psychology. Too often, James’s late philosophical views have overshadowed the accomplishments of his earlier work in psychology. Overall, this new edition indicates the scientific virtues of functionalism in cognitive psychology and shows the relevance of James’s functional psychology to contemporary cognitive theory.

Download or read book The Nervous System and the Mind written by Charles Mercier and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-29 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nervous System and the Mind: A Treatise on the Dynamics of the Human Organism Not very many years ago, courses of lectures on Physiology used to be prefaced by an apology from the lecturer for occupying the time of the students with a subject which did not directly concern the treatment of patients, and by a laboured exposition of the various uses of a knowledge of physiology. Such an apology would not now be either needed or tolerated. The least intelligent of men needs now no explanation to convince him of the necessity of a knowledge of the normal as preliminary to a knowledge of the abnormal. The rawest of students requires no proof to show him that he cannot understand disorder of a function until he has some knowledge of its healthy working. Physi ology is no longer considered a useless subject arbitrarily added to the medical curriculum by tyrannical examiners for the mere purpose of increasing the burden to be borne by students. So far we congratulate ourselves on a distinct advance of Opinion. But the advance is not yet quite far enough. One branch of medical science has remained in this respect absolutely stationary. There is one department of medicine, and only one, in which a knowledge of the normal is not only not considered as a necessary preliminary to a knowledge of the abnormal, but is openly scoffed at, jeered at and derided.
