Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Eighth edition. Octavo. 396 pp. Publisher's blind-stamped brown cloth with gilt spine lettering, pale yellow endpapers. Even toning throughout and a very old paper sticker to base of spine.

This work and a succeeding volume, "Outlines of Imperfect and Disordered Mental Action" (1840), made him to be regarded more as a psychologist than a theologian, and did much to liberate American philosophy and theology from the thraldom of the elder Jonathan Edwards" (Prabook).…
