This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900 edition. Excerpt: ... THE DAWN OP INTELLIGENCE The sixth month, though it lay between two great development periods, -- that of learning to use the senses, and that of learning to carry the body, -- was not in itself a period of suspended development. It is true that its progress, being more purely mental, could not be so continuously traced as that which came before and after, but rather cropped up to the surface every now and• then in a more or less broken way; still, no doubt, it really went on in the same gradual method, one thread and another knitting together into the fabric of new powers. It was to this month, as I said in closing the last chapter, that the beginnings of adaptive intelligence belonged; and this alone marks it a great epoch. There is a great deal of discussion about the use of the words "intelligence," "reason," "instinct," "judgment," "inference," and the like: what these faculties and acts really are, how they come about, where the bine is to be drawn between their manifestations (in the minds of animals and of man, for instance), and many other problems. But I think that all agree upon recognizing two types of action that come under the discussion: one, that which shows merely the ability to adapt means to ends, to use one's own wit in novel circumstances; the other, that which rests on the higher, abstract reasoning power, such as is hardly possible without carrying on a train of thought in words. Whether these two types are to be called intelligence and reason, as Professor Lloyd Morgan calls them, or whether both come under the head of reason, lower and higher, we need not trouble to decide. If we call them adaptive intelligence and higher or ab stract reason, we are safe enough. Even if it be true that any glimmer of...

About the Book Our offering includes memoirs, or collections of memories that individuals have written about moments or events, both public or private, that took place in their lives. While the assertions made in these works are generally taken to be factual, the biases or perspectives of the authors are often present. Historically, memoirs have been defined as a subcategory of biography or autobiography, however the genre is differentiated in form, since it presents a narrower focus. While a biography or autobiography tells the story "of a life", a memoir generally tells the story "from a life", tending to emphasize touchstone events and turning points in the author's life experience. The authors are referred to as memoirists or memorialists.Also in this Book Economic history involves the study of economies or economic phenomena rooted in the past. Economic history analysis is undertaken using a number of historical methods, statistical methods and require the application of economic theory to historical situations and institutions. Topics include financial and business history, which overlap with areas of social history such as demography and labor history. Many early books on economic history described businesses, economies or industries, with relatively less emphasis on econometrics or theoretical analyses.And in this Book Titles dealing with military veterans are about people who have served or are serving in the armed forces. Those that have had direct exposure to military conflict may also be termed war veterans, even though not all military conflicts, or areas in which armed combat takes place, are necessarily called wars.About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades.
