A Short History of Philosophy

A short history of Philosophy by Andrew Seth Pringle-Pattison, Scottish philosopher whose defense of personality had a dramatic impact on later, anti-Hegelian and pluralist, thinkers in the United States in particular. William James, George Santayana, Bertrand Russell and George Herbert Mead, all borrowed his concept of the personality, or psyche, and sought it as a barrier against the powerful claims of the imitative-suggestion School of Gabriel Tarde, early Sigmund Freud, F. H. Bradley, and Josiah Royce.
