 CIPLINE OF THE MIND, AND THE STUDY OF ITS MORBID 

 CONDITIONS. By William B. Carpenter, M. D., LL. D., etc. 



12mo. Cloth, $3.00. 



" It is the object of this treatise to take up and extend the inquiry into the 

 action of body upon mind, as well as of mind upon body, on the basis of our 

 existing knowledge, so as to elucidate, as far as may be at present possible, the 

 working of that physiological mechanism which takes a most important share 

 in our psychical operations, and thus to distinguish what may be called the 

 automatic activity of the mind from that which is under volitional direction and 

 control."

 cally and Scientifically Considered. 



By William B. Carpenter, M. D., LL. D., etc. 12mo. Cloth, $1.25. 



"The reader of these lectures will see that my whole aim is to discover, on 

 the generally accepted principles of testimony, what are facts; and to die 

 criminate between facts and the inferences drawn from them. I have no other 

 ' theory ' to support than that of the constancy of the well-ascertained laws o( 

 Nature."— jfroffi the Preface. 



Nature and Man: 



ESSAYS, SCIENTIFIC AND PHILOSOPHICAL. By the late Will- 

 iam Benjamin Carpenter, M. D., F. R. S. With an Introductory 

 Memoir by J. Estlin Carpenter, M. A., and a Portrait. 12mo. 

 Cloth. 



" Mr. Estlin Carpenter's memoir of his father is just what such a memoir 

 should bo— a simple record of a life, uneventful in itself, whose interest for us 

 lies mainly in the nature of the intellectual task, so early undertaken, so strenu- 

 ously carried on, so amply and nobly accomplisihed, to which it was devoted."— 

 Spectator. 



" Few works could be mentioned that give a better general view of the change 

 that has been wrou-'ht in men's conceptions of life and nature. For this, if for 

 nothing else, the collection would be valuable. But it will be welcomed also as 

 a kind of bio'j;raphy of its author, for the essays and the memoir support one 

 another and are mutually illuminative."— Scoiswa/i.
