About the Book:- The Lecture on logic, which were delivered in the alternate years, will follow as soon as they can be prepared for publication. In giving these lecture to the world, it is due both to the Author and to his readers to acknowledge that they do not appear in that state of completeness which might have been expected, had they been prepared for publication by the Author himself. The Author himself, adopting the Kantian division of the mental faculties into those of knowledge, Feeling and conation, considers the Phikosophy of mind as comprehending, in relation to each of these the three great subdivisions of Psychology, or the Science of the Phenomena of mind; Nomology, or the Science of its Laws; and Ontology, or the Science of Results and Inferences.” About the Author:- Sir William Hamilton, 9th Baronet FRSE (8 March 1788 – 6 May 1856) was a Scottish metaphysician. He is often referred to as William Stirling Hamilton of Preston, in reference to his mother, Elizabeth Stirling. He was born in rooms at the University of Glasgow[1] He was from an academic family. His father Professor William Hamilton, had in 1781, on the strong recommendation of William Hunter, been appointed to succeed his own father, Dr Thomas Hamilton, as Regius Professor of Anatomy, Glasgow; and when he died in 1790, aged 32, he had already gained a great reputation. William Hamilton and his younger brother, Thomas Hamilton, were brought up by their mother. He was elected in 1836 to the University of Edinburgh chair of logic and metaphysics, and from this time dates the influence which, during the next 20 years, he exerted over the thought of the younger generation in Scotland. Much about the same time he began the preparation of an annotated edition of Thomas Reid's works, intending to annex to it a number of dissertations.
