Education and self-improvement, founded on physiology and phrenology : or, what constitutes good heads and bodies, and how to make them good, by enlarging deficiencies and diminishing excesses
An 1844 phrenology and education treatise by Orson Squire Fowler, published in New York and Boston, aimed at general readers seeking self-improvement through the reading of head and body types. The pictures are plain black-and-white woodcut profiles and busts of heads, with one labelled diagram marking faculty zones in numbered regions, which a designer could draw on for an early nineteenth-century scientific schematic look.
