�valuation du vendeur 4 sur 5 �toiles

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive analysis of phrenology �" a philosophy that holds that the brain is a multiplex organ, and the exercise of the mind promotes the development of the brain. The author presents both sides of the argument, beginning with an account of the history of the subject and summarizing the work of its originators, such as Franz Joseph Gall. The author lays out the main principles of phrenology �" that larger brain regions indicate greater mental capacity �" and explores the scientific discoveries and arguments against the subject from its beginnings through the work of such figures as Pierre Flourens. Additional topics include the development of the brain, and the degree of mental power as it relates to the brain's size and shape. The author concludes with insights into the significance of phrenology and its principles on understanding the relationship between the brain and the mind. 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 r�f. du vendeur 9780282582944_0
