The Brain: Concidered Anatomically, Physiologically, and Philosophically
Emanuel Swedenborg
In 1743 Emanuel Swedenborg completed his second major work on the human brain...'The Brain' follows 'The Cerebrum' in dealing in considerable detail with the animation, or inherent motion of the cerebrum, and the predictable motion of its membranes abd the cranial bones secondary to it. But this work extends the description of this phenomenon to the cerebellum and the spinal cord as well...Other sections of the work describe the structure and function of the cerebellum, and pineal and pituitary glands; ...In these and other parts of 'The Brain', Swedenborg clearly anticipates the discoveries of anatonomists and physiologists to come.

The Rational Psychology: A Concordance of Subjects
Harold F. Pitcairn
This unique volume is the culmination of Harold Pitcairn's life-long interest in
The Ration Psychology
, Emanuel Swedenborg's 1742 treatise on the causal relationship of the human mind and soul. Much more than a subject index, this reference book presents the essential points of the
Rational Psychology
in Swedenborg's own language.
This book allows the reader to navigate the complexities of Swedenborg's terminology with respect to the mind and soul: causally linked as one, but operating discretely as body and spirit. Pitcairn has made this terminology accessible, as a guide for the reader who wishes to penetrate into Swedenborg's model of the soul-body interaction. His attention to detail makes it a valuable research tool.

Emanuel Swedenborg, Translated by Augustus Clissold
Published anonymously by Swedenborg 1740-41. Reprinted 1742 and 1748. Translated 1845. The English title is misleading.

Volume II begins with a chapter titled "An Introduction to Rational Psychology" wherein Swedenborg enunciates his important doctrine of Series and Degrees. Volume II focuses on the brain and the human soul. Author & Subject indexes in Volume II.

Our Price:
$16.95
The Economy of the Animal Kingdom, Volume III: The Fibre
Emanuel Swedenborg, Translated by Alfred Acton
Though clearly prepared for the press, this work was not published by Swedenborg. It was written in 1741-42. The work treats of the medullary fibre of the brain, the nerve fibres of the body, the arachnoid tunic, and diseases of the fibre. The latter part treats of both physical and psychological pathology. Particularly important philosophically is a 30-page section on Swedenborg's doctrine of forms, a crucial doctrine in his causal theory. Author and subject indexes.

Psychologica
Our Price:
$14.95
Psychologica
Emanuel Swedenborg / Translated by Alfred Acton
Taken from one of Swedenborg's journals in which he took notes on various works by other authors, these notes are interspersed with entries recording his travels in 1733 and 1734.
Psychologica
comprises the extensive notes taken on
Psychologia Empirica
of Christian Wolff (1679-1754) accompanied with substantial commentary by Swedenborg.
Swedenborg's reading of the
Psychologia Empirica
came at a crucial point in his intellectual development as he sought a way to demonstrate the existence of the soul. And we are fortunate to have recorded in this volume the evidence of his eager reception of some of Wolff's ideas and his reactions against others.

On Tremulation

$12.95
On Tremulation
Emanuel Swedenborg, Translated by C.T. Odhner
Fragments of a remarkable theory about "our most subtle nature, showing that our moving and living force consists of vibrations." This prelude to Swedenborgs search for the soul is his first examination of the relation between physiology and mental consciousness. He conceives of human sensations as consisting of subtle vibrations or "tremulations." While parts of the original treatise have been lost, this short volume includes all known fragments of Swedenborg on the theory, and outlines his earliest thinking on the soul-body problem. Index.
