Beschreibung

The Laws of Thought: A New Theory of Mental and Political Philosophy is a book written by Alexander Robertson and first published in 1865. The book delves into the fundamental principles of logic and reasoning, exploring the laws of thought that govern the way we think and reason. Robertson presents a new theory of mental and political philosophy, arguing that the laws of thought can be applied to political and social issues as well as individual cognition. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part discussing the nature of logic and the laws of thought. Robertson explores the principles of identity, contradiction, and excluded middle, arguing that these laws are essential to understanding the nature of truth and falsehood. The second part of the book focuses on the application of these laws to political and social issues. Robertson argues that the laws of thought can be used to analyze political arguments and to evaluate political systems. He explores the nature of democracy, the role of the state, and the relationship between individual freedom and social responsibility.The final part of the book discusses the relationship between mental and political philosophy. Robertson argues that the laws of thought are essential to both fields, and that a proper understanding of logic and reasoning is necessary for a just and equitable society.Overall, The Laws of Thought: A New Theory of Mental and Political Philosophy is a groundbreaking work that explores the fundamental principles of logic and reasoning and their application to political and social issues. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, politics, or the nature of human thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Autor

Alexander Robertson is a 'makar' or maker. From his trade background of making a living from his skill in joinery, he exploited a childhood interest in paint, paper and plasticine, to become a painter in oils and a sculptor in clay. An early interest in joke telling proved his introduction to writing short stories which led to dialogue and his first success. This was with the BBC which was a successful collaboration with many plays produced and broadcast over the years. LUCK OF THE DRAW, a comedy was the first, and continues as a theatre play, to be performed around the globe. In all his making he has been supported by his family and first reader wife who has played the greatest role in 'making ' him.
