New York: Free Press of Glencoe, ONLY GOOD lightly soiled gray cloth BUT with foxing on spine and cover. previous owner's name. STRAUS, ERWIN W. The primary world of senses. A vindication of sensory experience. Translated from the German by Jacob Needleman. New York: Free Press of Glencoe, xvi, 428pp., . Designed by Bernard Schleifer. This book, by a well-known physician, psychiatrist, and philosopher, reaffirms the centrality of sensory experience after a long period of neglect and misconstruction. By challenging the philosophical basis for the contemporary mystique of objective experimentation, The Primary World of Senses answers the need for a detailed explication of how Cartesian metaphysics has worked powerfully against scientific psychology. Disputing the Cartesian dualism of mind and matter, Dr. Straus points out that once man is viewed as isolated from his world, no true science of psychology is possible. The Cartesian dualism, by isolating the psychological observer from the people he studies, for instance, makes a damaging distinction. The propositions that serve to explain all of human behavior - at least in principle - must also be sufficient to explain the behavior of the observer himself. Sensory experience, Dr. Straus concludes, is not an unreliable step to knowledge, but is actually man s very gateway to the world. - About the Author DR. ERWIN STRAUS is Director of Professional Services for Research and Education at the Veterans Administration Hospital, Lexington, Kentucky, where he is in charge of a laboratory dedicated to the study of expressive behavior. This important work first appeared in German in 1935 as Vom Sinn der Sinne (Second Edition, 1956).
