Contents:
This Volume contains a summary of the results of more than forty years of study and experience concerning Mental Phenomena. Part First consists of what the author and his friends regard as a greatly improved system of Phrenology. Part Second contains an entirely new account of the relations of the body and mind to each other, including several discoveries concerning the Physiology of the Emotions, and their beneficial effects upon the heart and other vital organs. Part Third is devoted to an application of the principles previously explained, to solve the mysteries that have hitherto surrounded the phenomena of Trance, Mesmerism, and Spiritism. / Includes a few famous people such as Ben Franklin, Vespucius, Handel, Plato, Socrates, Sir Walter Scott, and a few more.
A rare book covering mostly phrenology, but also mesmerism, mind-reading, spirit delusion, a little on witchcraft, and a bit more!

for understanding --
and remember -
this book is very old and
may have accumulated bad smells along the way [musty basement/ mildew/ smoke]
- I have found that
dryer sheets in them for a few months makes a world of difference!
some of my books get sold right away so
please consider using this trick before deciding to return it!
My nose doesn't work like it use to
so the old book smell doesn't bother me.
As far as I can tell -this book does not smell bad
