Ebook: Benjamin Rush's Lectures on the mind

A complete version of Benjamin Rush's lectures on the mind.
These classes were delivered by Rush at the University of Pennsylvania between 1791 and his death in 1813.
Rush's lectures on the mind cover a broad range of subjects, beginning with animal heat, voice and speech, senses, sympathy, sleep and dreams, mental faculties and operations that make humans distinguishable from animals, and an explanation of somnambulism and mental peculiarities of males and females.
All essays are extensively edited and annotated.
Footnotes explain personalities and events cited in the text, while the bracketing of sentences and paragraphs, added or eliminated from his notes between 1791 and 1813, allow a better understanding concerning the evolution of Rush's psychological viewpoints.
