The famous and oft-reproduced frontis wood engraving to volume one illustrates Jevons's logical piano, the first logic machine actually built."... Jevons's fame as the inventor of a logic machine has tended to obscure the important role he pl ayed in the history of both inductive and deductive logic. He was one of the pioneers of modern symbolic logic, and his Principles of Science, first issued in 1874, deserves far more recognition than it has today as an important treatise on the philosophy and methods of science. At a time when most British logicians ignored or damned with faint praise the remarkable achievements of George Boole, Jevons was quick to see the importance of Boole's work as well as many of its defects" [Martin G ardner, Logic Machines and Diagrams (McGraw-Hill, 1958), p.92].

Mach's principal contribution to psychology. "The Study of form perception begins with The Analysis of the Sensations, for, by making space a sensation that was correlated with the physical world, Mach made it amenable to scienti fic study. ... Mach's seminal ideas concerning the nature of form were developed by the school of form qualities, a transitional stage between Mach and the Gestalt psychologists." [Zusne p. 153].

Murphy had earlier written Habit and Intelligence, the first, albeit expectably somewhat potted, application of evolutionary theory to comparative psychology, published three years bef ore Darwin's own Expression of the Emotions. From the evidence of that work and the present one, I'd say that a good article or dissertation awaits the entrepeneurial scholar who resurrects Murphy from the dustbin of history. Even Bob Richar ds' otherwise magisterial Darwin and the Emergence of Evolutionary Theories of Mind and Behavior breathes nary a word about Murphy. Not exactly a defence of religious belief, The Scientific Bases of Faith is in fact an elegant a rgument for a dual-aspect monism founded on the concept of sensation with inductive (= positivist, scientific) and metaphysical (= consciousness with squiggle room for religion) aspects.

The famous and oft-reproduced frontis wood engraving to volume one illustrates Jevons's logical piano, the first logic machine actually built."... Jevons's fame as the inventor of a logic machine has tended to obscure the important role he pl ayed in the history of both inductive and deductive logic. He was one of the pioneers of modern symbolic logic, and his Principles of Science, first issued in 1874, deserves far more recognition than it has today as an important treatise on the philosophy and methods of science. At a time when most British logicians ignored or damned with faint praise the remarkable achievements of George Boole, Jevons was quick to see the importance of Boole's work as well as many of its defects" [Martin G ardner, Logic Machines and Diagrams (McGraw-Hill, 1958), p.92].

Mach's principal contribution to psychology. "The Study of form perception begins with The Analysis of the Sensations, for, by making space a sensation that was correlated with the physical world, Mach made it amenable to scienti fic study. ... Mach's seminal ideas concerning the nature of form were developed by the school of form qualities, a transitional stage between Mach and the Gestalt psychologists." [Zusne p. 153].

Murphy had earlier written Habit and Intelligence, the first, albeit expectably somewhat potted, application of evolutionary theory to comparative psychology, published three years bef ore Darwin's own Expression of the Emotions. From the evidence of that work and the present one, I'd say that a good article or dissertation awaits the entrepeneurial scholar who resurrects Murphy from the dustbin of history. Even Bob Richar ds' otherwise magisterial Darwin and the Emergence of Evolutionary Theories of Mind and Behavior breathes nary a word about Murphy. Not exactly a defence of religious belief, The Scientific Bases of Faith is in fact an elegant a rgument for a dual-aspect monism founded on the concept of sensation with inductive (= positivist, scientific) and metaphysical (= consciousness with squiggle room for religion) aspects.
