PHILOSOPHICAL PERIODICALS. 137 tary action.] Reviews of Books. Summaries of Articles. Notices of New Books. Eeprint, Sept., 1896. Supplement L, June, 1895. Supplement II., June, 1896. [These two Supplements, which are separately purchasable, contain the first part of Dr. E. Adickes' ' Bibliography of Writings by and on Kant, which have appeared in Germany up to the end of 1887,' bringing it down to the conclusion of the year 1804. There are 571 pp. of continuous bibliography, 23 pp. of additions and corrections, and 27 pp. of indices. The work includes elaborate essays on the philosophies of Maimon, Schulze, Beck, Schiller, Tiedemann, Fichte, Politz, Schelling, Bouterwek, Herder, Bardili, Krug, etc., etc. The author is to be sincerely congratulated on the completion of this portion of his task, and the Editors of the Review have earned the lasting gratitude of all students of philosophy. A word of praise should also be accorded to the anonymous translator, who has done his work excellently. It is to be hoped that we may soon see the first instalment of part ii., which should be even more valuable than part i.] PSYCHOLOGICAL REVIEW. Vol. iii., No. 4. J. Dewey. ' The Reflex Arc Concept in Psychology.' [The idea of the reflex arc is a fairly satis- factory general working hypothesis. But, as currently employed, it gives us an arc, without indicating the circuit of which it is the arc : co-ordi- nation, the regarding of genesis and function, is necessary. ' It is the circuit within which fall distinctions of stimulus and response as functional phases of its own mediation or completion.'] Studies from the Psycho- logical Laboratory of the University of Chicago, (in.) : J. R. Angell and S. F. McLennan. ' The Organic Effects of Agreeable and Disagreeable Stimuli.' [A contribution to the study of the feelings by the physiological method. Gives no reference at all to previous work, and thus entails needless labour upon the reader.] (iv.) : A. Tanner and K. Anderson. ' Simultaneous Sense Stimulations.' [In the main, a repetition of Ur- bantschitsch's work. A useful paper, which would have been much im- proved by detailed references and a better method of presentation.] J. Kodis ' Some Remarks upon Apperception.' [The term has been employed to mean an event which imparts clearness to representations, reflective knowledge, and an act of knowledge produced by the impact of two groups of representations. The second meaning (Kant) is the best.] R. H. Stetson. ' Types of Imagination.' [Examination by questionnaire of 100 college students. Classification ; general remarks.] H. Griffing. ' On Individual Sensibility to Pain. : [Pain sensibility to sensory stimu- lation varies with the conditions of stimulation. There probably is such a thing as ' general sensibility to pain '.] E. W. Scripture. ' The Third Year at the Yale Laboratory.' [Of. vol. ii., p. 879.] Discussion and Reports. A. H. Lloyd. ' A Psychological Interpretation of Certain Doctrines in Formal Logic.' [Formal copula, concrete and quantified predicate, abstraction of time, definition, rules of distribution.] M. W. Calkins and J. Jastrow. ' Community of Ideas of Men and Women.' [Report of new experiments at Wellesley ; reply to criticisms of Jas- trow and Ellis ; remarks by Jastrow. Miss Calkins concludes, seemingly with right, that ' the essential difference between masculine and feminine mind ' is untouched by Jastrow's method.] Psychological Literature. New Books. Notes.

  • 0n Muscular Memory.' [An attempt to estimate the part played in

normal memories by the 'muscular' or 'motor' element, i.e., by the muscle-joint-sinew sensation complex. Two points were investigated : the influence of memories of throat, tongue, and lip movements upon the recall of syllables ; and the ' muscular ' memory of hand movements.
