Bag om The Head-Piece Or, Phrenology Opposed To Divine Revelation

The Head-Piece Or, Phrenology Opposed To Divine Revelation is a book written by James Everett. This book is a critique of phrenology, a popular pseudoscience in the 19th century that claimed to be able to determine a person's character and abilities based on the shape and size of their skull. Everett argues that phrenology is incompatible with the teachings of the Bible and that it is a dangerous and misleading practice. He provides examples of how phrenology has been used to justify racism, eugenics, and other harmful beliefs. The book is a thorough examination of the flaws in phrenology and a call for people to reject it in favor of a more rational and ethical approach to understanding human nature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
