Book Description
Excerpt from The Psychological Review, 1915, Vol. 22 It is obvious that such a position is almost inexpugnably entrenched. The extremely hypothetical nature of the ground renders a direct attack hopeless. SO much as this may be ventured, that, if the words expressing a thought are really its constituent parts, it is curious that the same thought can be thought in different words, and even in different languages, and still more curious that the words to fit the thought are not always at hand. Apparently, the same complex may be composed of different elements, and may exist with some of its elements lacking. Further, it is curious to reflect that these verbal images in the background must somehow be present simultaneously and yet in proper sequence, since otherwise they might compose quite a different thought or no thought at all.
