By ALEXANDER WALKER. 
“This is in many respects a very strange composition — full of new and recondite 
knowledge, with remarks the most poignant that we have read for many a day. I no 
volume is elegantly got up — unique, appropriate, handsomely illustrated, and in every 
respect a singularly valuable book.” — Monuity Magazine , July, 1834. 
“ Mr. Walker, at one fell swoop, overturns all the nicely-spun theories of the Phren- 
ologists, their mental maps traced out upon the skull, with all their much-studied and 
laboriously minute nomenclature. We think him right. Let no one, therefore, be 
hereafter alarmed at the appearance of an awkward bump in self, wile, or child, 
unless it has been recently inflicted. . . The book is usetul, agreeable, and 
instructive : it deserves well to be generally read.” — Metropolitan. 
“ Would the reader, in his intercourse with the world, be informed at a glance, of 
the habits and propensities of the individuals he encounters, lie may here, with little 
trouble, possess himself of the faculty.’ ’ — M agasine of the Fine Arts. 
“ One of the most remarkable recent publications is a work entitled, < Physiognomy, 
founded on Physiology,’ by Mr. Walker.” — Tail’s Magazine. 
“ This is a very curious, and a very acute performance .” — The Literary Gazette. 
“There is mote originality in this volume than we were prepared for : there is also 
more good sense and sound reflection than we expected to meet with m a work with this 
Utle. Pleasanter and more readable pages than Mr. Walker’s we have not for some 
months gone over.” — Sunday Herald, June, 1834. 
“ This volume is a rich accession to our literature in every sense. The author having 
been formerly lecturer on Anatomy and Physiology, in Edinburgh, comes to the per- 
formance of his work with qualifications of a higher order, and has supported ,t with 
philosophical research, and delightful -"““^34.

“ The work is certainly one which has the very strongest claims on the scientific 
and philosophical world, and cannot fail to lead to discoveries which may ^"^con-
