Description
This academic work presents a comprehensive bibliography of phrenologogical
works and thus provides an valuable resource for further reserach on the
subject. Roger Cooter, a Cambridge historian, performed extensive research
about the history of phrenology Britain (his PhD thesis was entitled
"The Cultural Meaning of Popular Science: Phrenology and the Organisation
of Consent in Nineteenth-Century Britain").
