Excerpt from The Distinction Between Mind and Its Objects: The Adamson Lecture for Adamson; With an Appendix
What I desire to consider with you to-night may fairly be described as a new situation in the philosophical world. And I may begin by saying that it is satisfactory that there should be a new situation. It is a testimony to the inexhaustibleness of reality, and, What is really the same thing, to the fecundity of the human mind. And in the next place, I shall attempt to shew that the nature of the new appearance constitutes a real advance. There is, indeed, always, I believe, a double interpretation possible in face of new attitudes of mind. The novelty may be satisfactory in itself, or it may be satisfactory because of its suggestions. I shall touch upon such a problem of inter pretation this evening.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book considers the evolving relationship between mind and reality from the vantage point of contemporary philosophy, in an effort to synthesize the key ideas and arguments of the materialist and idealist schools in an innovative and comprehensive vision. Building on the substantial philosophical knowledge of the authors, the book includes an examination of the competing views of reality that have shaped philosophy since Plato's time right through to the 20th century. By exploring the dual nature of knowledge as both finite and boundless, the book asks questions that get to the heart of our understanding of the world around us and our place within it.
