    Medical Who Was First Psychologist? Plato and Beyond

    Oh no, I appreciate the help!:biggrin: I'm lagging behind a bit thus the little "blurbs" so I'm happy that you pointed out things I could delve into deeper as I'm sure I could say more about a lot of things-- I'd just have well over eight pages.:smile: That and the timeline I took this from had...

Simply how the mind reacts to different things interests me… I checked out The Mystifying Mind and I plan to read the entire thing if I can find...
