Ürün Açıklaması
This Matter Of Association By Relation İs One Of The Most İmportant Things İn The Whole Subject Of Thought, And The Degree Of Correct And Efficient Thinking Depends Materially Upon İt. It Does Not Suffice Us To Merely "Know" A Thing—We Must Know Where To Find İt When We Want İt. As Old Judge Sharswood, Of Pennsylvania, Once Said: "It] İs Not So Much To Know The Law, As To Know Where To Find İt." Kay Says: "Over The Associations Formed By Contiguity İn Time Or Space We Have But Little Control. They Are İn A Manner Accidental, Depending Upon The Order İn Which The Objects Present Themselves To The Mind. On The Other Hand, Association By Similarity İs Largely Put İn Our Own Power; For We, İn A Measure, Select Those Objects That Are To Be Associated, And Bring Them Together İn The Mind. We Must Be Careful, However, Only To Associate Together Such Things As We Wish To Be Associated Together And To Recall Each Other; And The Associations We Form Should Be Based On Fundamental And Essential, And Not Upon Mere Superficial Or Casual Resemblances. When Things Are Associated By Their Accidental, And Not By Their Essential Qualities,—By Their Superficial, And Not By Their Fundamental Relations, They Will Not Be Available When Wanted, And Will Be Of Little Real Use. When We Associate What İs New With What Most Nearly Resembles İt İn The Mind Already, We Give İt İts Proper Place İn Our Fabric Of Thought. By Means Of Association By Similarity, We Tie Up Our İdeas, As İtwere, İn Separate Bundles, And İt İs Of The Utmost İmportance That All The İdeas That Most Nearly Resemble Each Other Be İn One Bundle."
