Alexander Bain war ein schottischer empirischer Philosoph und Pädagoge, der als Pionier die wissenschaftliche Methode in die Psychologie einführte und die erste Fachzeitschrift ihrer Art, *Mind*, gründete. Seine innovative Arbeit beeinflusste maßgeblich Bereiche wie Psychologie, Linguistik, Logik und Moralphilosophie. Als führende Persönlichkeit der Bildungsreform prägten Bains intellektuelle Beiträge das akademische Denken. Sein Erbe ist fest im britischen Empirismus und der Weiterentwicklung der analytischen Philosophie verwurzelt.
