Philosophical Remains of George Croom Robertson with a Memoir is a collection of essays, articles, and philosophical writings by George Croom Robertson, edited by Alexander Bain and T. Whittaker. Robertson was a prominent British philosopher and the first editor of Mind, the leading journal in philosophy. His work spanned various fields, including psychology, logic, ethics, and metaphysics, and this collection preserves his contributions to these areas.

The volume includes a memoir that offers insight into Robertson’s life, his academic career, and his influence in the development of philosophy in the late 19th century. As a key figure in British philosophy, Robertson was particularly known for his studies on Thomas Hobbes and his analysis of mind and consciousness, which laid the groundwork for future explorations in psychology.

The Philosophical Remains features essays that discuss fundamental philosophical issues such as the nature of thought, perception, and ethics. The editors provide commentary on Robertson’s ideas, highlighting their significance and impact on contemporary philosophical discourse. This collection serves not only as a tribute to Robertson’s intellectual legacy but also as a resource for those studying the history of philosophy.

This volume is an essential read for students of philosophy, particularly those interested in the evolution of psychological thought, British empiricism, and the intersections of philosophy and early psychology.
