# Little Masterpieces of Science: Mind

By George Iles.

"Little Masterpieces of Science: Mind" by George Iles is a scientific collection edited in the early 20th century, featuring contributions from notable thinkers of the time such as John Fiske and Thomas H. Huxley. This work delves into the evolution of human thought and development, particularly emphasizing the nature of the mind and its faculties, including memory, common sense, and the role of infancy in human evolution. It serves as a reflection on the scientific advancements in understanding these concepts during the 19th century. The opening of this volume presents a preface that sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of the mind by highlighting the significant progress made in psychology and related fields. It discusses the transformative insights gained from examining human infancy and its implications for understanding family structures and social development, framing this exploration as essential for directing education and personal growth. The contributions from various eminent scientists focus on different aspects of mental development, including the correlation between sensory perceptions and cognitive processes, providing a rich context for the discussions that follow in the succeeding chapters.
