Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a novel interpretation of human nature by combining the insights of geology and phrenology. The author argues that the organs of the human brain, identified by phrenology, were created in a specific order that corresponds to the geological record of animal life. This theory challenges the traditional view of man as a special creation, separate from the rest of the natural world, and instead positions humanity as the product of a gradual evolutionary process. The author explores the implications of this theory for our understanding of psychology, morality, and human potential, leading to a fresh perspective on the origins and nature of humankind.
