Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a new perspective on the science of phrenology, the study of the mind as revealed by the physical features of the skull. Published in 1856, the author presents a system of phrenology that builds upon the work of its founders, Gall and Spurzheim, while challenging certain aspects of their theories. The author meticulously examines each phrenological organ, exploring its location and function, ultimately proposing a revised system that incorporates new insights. The book delves into the nature of the mind itself, arguing that it is not a singular entity but rather a collection of distinct faculties. Each faculty, from basic instincts like hunger and aggression to complex emotions and intellectual abilities, is believed to have its own unique organ in the brain, detectable through the shape of the skull. Through this lens, the author explores the complexities of human nature, highlighting how individual differences in character are rooted in variations in brain structure. The author's work offers a fascinating glimpse into the scientific and cultural landscape of the 19th century, where phrenology was a popular and hotly debated field of study. The book's insights, grounded in detailed observation and careful analysis, contribute significantly to the ongoing discussion about the relationship between the mind and the body. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780259949305_0
