Two Spheres: Or Mind Versus Instinct is a philosophical treatise written by T. E. S. T. and published in 1894. The book explores the conflict between the human mind and instinct, arguing that the two are fundamentally opposed and that the mind must ultimately triumph over instinct in order for humans to achieve their full potential. Drawing on a range of philosophical and scientific sources, including the works of Darwin and Herbert Spencer, the book presents a compelling case for the importance of reason and rationality in human life, and argues that the development of these faculties is essential for our continued progress as a species. At the same time, it acknowledges the power and importance of instinct, and explores the ways in which our innate drives and impulses can be harnessed and directed towards positive ends. Throughout the book, T. E. S. T. engages in a lively and thought-provoking dialogue with the reader, challenging conventional wisdom and inviting us to think deeply about the nature of human existence and the forces that shape our lives. Written in a clear and accessible style, Two Spheres is a timeless work of philosophy that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
