Pierre Jean George Cabanis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (685 words)
He was born at Cosnac (Corrèze), the son of Jean Baptiste Cabanis (1723-1786), a lawyer and agronomist.
During the last two years of Honoré Mirabeau's life, Cabanis was intimately connected with him, and wrote the four papers on public education which were found among the Mirabeau's papers at his death, and were edited by the real author soon afterwards in 1791.
Psychology is with Cabanis directly linked on to biology, for sensibility, the fundamental fact, is the highest grade of life and the lowest of intelligence.
