The Constitution of Man Considered in Relation to External Objects is a book written by George Combe that explores the relationship between human nature and the external world. The book is divided into several sections, each of which examines a different aspect of this relationship. The first section discusses the physical constitution of man, including his senses, nervous system, and brain. The second section explores the role of the external world in shaping human behavior, including the impact of education, social institutions, and environmental factors. The third section examines the relationship between human nature and morality, including the nature of conscience and the role of free will in moral decision-making. The final section of the book discusses the implications of these ideas for society as a whole, including the importance of education, the role of government, and the need for social reform. Overall, The Constitution of Man Considered in Relation to External Objects is a thought-provoking exploration of the complex relationship between human nature and the world around us.This treatise is a humble attempt to produce highly interesting and instructive works on moral science. The author confines his observations exclusively to man as he exists in the present world, and in perusing these pages, this explanation must be kept in view. Illustrated.
