This book is the definitive work on craniology and organology, two closely related fields of study, by the renowned Dr. Franz Joseph Gall, the father of modern neuroscience. Craniology determines the degree of the development of the brain as a whole or to that of any part, and consequently forms a judgment of the degree of moral and intellectual dispositions by examining the external form of the cranium or head. Organology, on the other hand, is the doctrine of the functions of the different parts of the brain, or determining the fundamental qualities and faculties and the seat of their organs in the brain. Filled with insightful illustrations and thorough explanations, this book is an essential tool for any student of the human mind and body. Gall's exhaustive research into the forms of skulls and brains, and his careful correlation of these findings with human behaviors and traits, has laid the groundwork for understanding how the brain functions and how it relates to our thoughts, feelings, and actions.
