ABSTRACT
Hebb's book, Organization of Behavior (1949) had an important influence on experimental psychology. Hebb tried to provide a basis for the integration of physiological and perceptual (subjective) languages for discussing the nature of thought. The problem of the relationship of brain and mind has been a puzzle since Descartes. Whereas Hebb's book served to focus the attention of psychologists on the goal of developing a scientific analysis of conscious processing, there were several difficulties present at the time Hebb wrote that he could not fully overcome.
