A guide to human and comparative phrenology : With observations on the national varieties of the cranium, and a description of Drs. Gall and Spurzheim's method of dissecting the human brain
A guide to phrenology published in London in 1831 by H. W. Dewhurst, drawing on the work of Franz Joseph Gall and Johann Gaspar Spurzheim, and aimed at readers interested in the study of skull shape and mental faculties. The pictures are plain line engravings of numbered head profiles divided into regions, with a sectioned skull and brain diagram, giving a designer clear, schematic layouts for charts, labelled diagrams, and scientific-instrument style plates.
