[The spirit and sensations according to Charles Bonnet (1720-1793)].
When Charles Bonnet, the many-sided naturalist, was forced by eye troubles to abandon observation and experimentation, he took to psychology and philosophy, concentrating his thought on two main topics: the origin of our ideas and the organisation of our mental faculties. In Bonnet's view, the nerve fibre is the anatomical and physiological element on which not only sensation but the entire mental life depends.
