Studies in Character Analysis by Manly P. Hall, First Edition - 1958
The working principles of character analysis are so clearly
explained herein that the reader can gain a good working knowledge
without recourse to other texts. However, appropriate reference works
are indicated for the benefit of those who wish to continue their
studies. The subject matter covers phrenology, palmistry, physiognomy,
and graphology, as well as a study of oriental character analysis which
has been included in this edition. Of special note are illustrations of
some unusual items, such as the phrenological bust designed by Dr.
Fowler, an old French diagram on character reading through studying the
joints of fingers, 17th century woodcuts of resemblances between human
and animal faces, and a facsimile of the last handwriting of Marie
Antoinette before her execution.
