Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Physiognomy Illustrated, or Nature´s Revelations of Character: A Description of the Mental, Moral, and Volitive Dispositions of Mankind, as Manifested in the Human Form and Countenance The work here given to the public in the fruit of nearly twenty years observation and study, in the course of which the discoveries have been made which are herein revealed and formed into a new system of Physiognomy, strictly in accordance with the anatomical structure of the human body. While I am convinced cf the vast importance of the study of Physiognomy, I am further persuaded that if these principles were fully understood and practised, the consequence would be, not only a regeneration of the human beings now living in the world, but the generation of others far superior to those who now inhabit the earth, and many of whom have come upon it as unwelcome guests. Vice, easily detected, would hide its head, and gradually disappear; while the human race would become refined and ennobled, mentally, morally, and physically, by a true understanding of that which improves it on the one hand, and deteriorates it on the other. The love which I bear towards my species, my intense desire to see the human race what it ought to be, and is capable of becoming, has prompted me to give this publicity to these discoveries in Physiognomy.
