Beschreibung
William Walker Atkinson, an attorney by trade, explains different kinds of logic and reasoning - deductive, inductive and hypothetical.
The author begins by describing how the mind forms ideas and concepts, and then subjects these to the mental processes of higher reasoning. The memory stores a repository of terms, which are different from concepts in that they apply exclusively to the name of things. Through reasoning the mind can arrive at a judgment of a given thing or idea, and through simple distinction can reject what is false - for instance, the notion that a horse is a cow.
Moving on from these simple examples, Atkinson describes how complex judgments and analyses are formed by the mind. Piecing together an accurate chain of events forms a kind of inductive reasoning - for example, if several people enters a store empty-handed, and later emerge with bags of fruit and vegetables, is it sensible to infer that it is a grocery store. Deriving conclusions from facts and events is forming a hypothesis; with the use of information, assertions can be made to arrive at a sensible conclusion - without personally entering said store, based on known facts it is credible to hypothesize that it sells groceries.

Über den Autor
William Walker Atkinson, born in 1862, was an influential American author and philosopher known for his extensive writings on yoga, mysticism, and Eastern philosophy. A prominent figure in the New Thought movement, Atkinson authored numerous works exploring the principles of spiritual growth and self-realization. His writings often focus on practical applications of Eastern spiritual practices, particularly in the context of Western thought.

His approach combines insights from Indian spirituality with Western understanding, aiming to provide readers with tools for achieving enlightenment and inner peace. In addition to his work on yoga, Atkinson wrote extensively on subjects like mental science, self-help, and occultism. His contributions to spiritual literature have influenced many seeking to integrate Eastern philosophies into their lives.
