The Head-Piece Or, Phrenology Opposed To Divine Revelation

By James Everett

Book Overview

The Head-Piece Or, Phrenology Opposed To Divine Revelation is a book written by James Everett. The book is a critique of the pseudoscience of phrenology, which was popular in the 19th century. Phrenology posited that the shape and size of a person's skull could reveal their character and mental abilities. Everett, a Christian minister, argues that phrenology is incompatible with the teachings of the Bible and that it undermines the concept of free will. He also argues that phrenology is based on flawed science and that its practitioners are guilty of making unfounded claims about the human mind. The book is a passionate defense of traditional Christian beliefs and a rejection of what Everett sees as a dangerous and misguided scientific theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
