Excerpt from Human Nature a Psychological Study This book is an interpretation of human nature under the guide of such thinkers as Kant, Hegel, Lotze, and Bowne. Their definition that "being is action" takes the place of the old Greek conception that "being is substance." The ground of all being is life-energy. Human nature is human being, the dynamic of human nature is life-energy, and, therefore, our study of human nature is a study of human activities under the guidance of experience rather than of history or theology. The life of an individual cannot, of course, exhibit all the activities of human nature, but there are so many activities common to all individuals that a unity of human nature may be inferred, so that our study is of the dynamics of human nature, and considers that nature as a unit. The method of this study is psychological rather than historical or theological. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
