Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a simplified and approachable guide to the study of mind and human nature through the principles of phrenology. Phrenology, established by Dr. Franz Joseph Gall in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, sought to locate the human mind's faculties in specific areas of the brain through the study of the shape of the skull. Rather than exploring the mind's physicality, this book introduces Gall's work as a philosophy of mind and a way to understand human nature and behavior. The author argues that phrenology is an efficient system of psychology and that the study of phrenology can impact areas of human life from education and personal growth to criminal rehabilitation and social welfare. In addition to a basic overview of the tenets of Gall's work, the author provides practical exercises on how to assess character based on physical measurements including physiognomy and the shape of the hand. This book presents a balanced view of the philosophy of phrenology, its history, and its implications for social science.
