Excerpt from book: Again, in regard to Sir William Hamilton's assertion of the equal or superior size of the female cerebellum, we find at page 514 a table entitled Dimensions of the cerebellum and nodus encephali. In it the greatest breadth of the cerebellum in six male Europeans varies from 4 inches 3 lines to 3 inches 6 lines, being the highest and lowest measurements. But in the three female Europeans, the highest is only equal to the lowest male, namely, 3 inches 6 lines; the other two being 3 inches 5 lines and 3 inches 3 lines respectively. Here again the superior accuracy of the phrenologists is proved even by hostile testimony; and did time permit, other confirmations might be extracted from Tiedemann's pages. II.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Phrenological Miscellany, or the Annuals of Phrenology and Physiognomy From 1865 to 1873 The very art of dissimulation, sometimes urged as an objection, is founded on physiognomical principles. If a hypocritical knave try to ap pear like an honest man, is it not because he recognizes the fact that honesty has a certain characteristic expression, and knows that his fellow men are aware what this expression is?
