Description
Excerpt from Outlines of Phrenology: Being Also a Manuel of Reference for the Marked Bust
The aim of this small Volume, is to convey a brief but comprehensive view of the elementary notions of Phrenology. The details of this science are considered in Dr. Gall''s work, in my own publica tions, and in Mr. Combe''s System of Phrenology. Illustrative observations are also contained in the Transactions of the Edinburgh Phrenological Society, and in the Phrenological Journal of the same city. The various extensive collections of casts in London, Edinburgh, Paris, &c. Furnish ample evidence of the data on which phrenology is founded. I hope that be fore long they will not be wanting on this side of the globe. Nature is constant and ever within the reach of those who would examine {or themselves, and by self-exam ination, obtain self-conviction of truth.
