Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Original publisher's beige paper wrappers. 9 1/2" x 12." Pages 121-144, complete. A few black-and-white illustrations, complete. Some pages unopened. Pages are clean and intact overall but have slight darkening, faint dampstaining throughout, slight chipping and wear to extremities, and slight wrinkling. A Very Good copy. The June 1855 (Vol. XXI, No. 6) issue of the American Phrenological Journal, a magazine dedicated to the pseudoscience of phrenology. Phrenology correlates features of the skull to personality traits and intelligence. The magazine also included other subjects such as science, news, poetry, and literature. The American Phrenological Journal was published from 1838-1911. The publisher of the magazine, Fowler and Wells, was founded in 1835 by brothers Orson and Lorenzo Fowler who were later joined by Samuel Wells. Although principally known as a publisher and phrenological institution, Fowler and Wells contributed to scientific fields such as physiology and hygiene. The following are the subjects in this issue as listed on front: "Phrenology in the Pulpit," "Electricity in Plants and Animals," "Remarkable Displays of Electricity," "Biography--Sharon Carter, his Phrenological Character and Biography; Dr. Caldwell's Autobiography," "Criminal Legislation," "What to Eat and Why," "Events of the Month--The Pennsylvania Liquor Law--Voice of the Faculty--The Tobacco Reform--Lunatics and Idiots in Massachusetts--Marriage of Lucy Stone--Polygamy in Utah--Seeds for Distribution--The New Arctic Expedition--Capture of Lewis Baker--The Mercantile Library--The Crimean War--Attempted Assassination of the Emperor--The Vienna Conference--Napoleon's Visit to England," "Literary Notices," "Miscellany--Palmer's Patent Log--A New Building Material--The Improved Hand Mill--To Students of Phrenology--Omar Pacha--Lord Raglan," and "Woodruff's Patent Self-Acting Gate.".
