An Examination of Phrenology: In Two Lectures is a book written by Thomas Sewall in 1837. The book provides a critical analysis of phrenology, a pseudoscientific theory that claims that the shape and size of a person's skull can reveal their personality traits and mental abilities. In the two lectures, Sewall presents arguments against phrenology, questioning its scientific validity and highlighting its flaws. He also examines the social and political implications of phrenology, arguing that it can be used to justify discrimination and prejudice. Overall, the book offers a comprehensive critique of phrenology and its impact on society at the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
