Publisher's Synopsis

This comprehensive study of character and personality includes analysis of various physiological indicators, such as facial features and skull shapes. McCormick's work draws upon several pseudoscientific disciplines, including phrenology and physiognomy, as well as more established fields like neuroscience. While the scientific validity of these theories is dubious, the book provides insight into how character and personality were perceived in the late 19th century.
