The Elements of Mentality: The Foundations of Psychology and Philosophy

Offering a model of mentality that sets psychology and philosophy on common footing, this book eliminates the breach between the sciences and the humanities. It echoes an 18th-century work by David Hume, which suggested that psychology, or the study of man, was the foundation for all other sciences. Such issues as the nature of reality, value, certainty, validity, free will, morality, and justice are addressed.
