Book excerpt: Excerpt from Encyclopaedia of Human Nature and Physiognomy: Treating of Every Characteristic, Both Good and Bad, of the Various Types of Man and Woman as They Exist, and as Manifested in Every Day Life Tanu is no subject of greater importance to man than the study of himself, first; and, secondly, of his fellow-men. There are no sciences better adapted to aid in this study than. Phrenology and physiognomy. The examination of these sciences not only reveals the laws of the mind, but proves to be one of the best means of educating and-developing those faculties which are especially necessary to the efficient performance of the active and practical duties of life. Unfortunately, only a few of our people have cared to gather information from the rich fields of knowledge into which these sciences would lead them; while some are so strongly prejudiced that they prefer to go through the world ignorant of this whole subject, rather than to open their eyes and let the light of new truth dawn upon them. There are others who are careless and indifferent, seldom acquiring any scientific knowledge, unless it is forced upon them; and still another class, who fear phrenology because of its power to disclose their secret faults - if it would only atter them, they would gladly embrace it. A hungry man, in his right mind, will not refuse good, wholesome food; nor will a wise man reject practical, useful knowledge, no matter whether it is palatable or otherwise. Truth is no respecter of persons; neither does it array itself in unseemly garments, nor in my way Injure the individual who seeks and finds it, and is governed by it. The honest, progressive man is always in love with it, and his reward is as great and lasting as Truth itself. Notwithstanding the opposition that was at first exhibited to these sciences (as to all new inventions and doctrines), they are rapidly gaining in popular esteem, and are now recognized and studied by many of the most intelligent and in uential minds of the age.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Human Nature, or Men and Women Exposed: Treating of Every Characteristic, Both Good and Bad, of the Various Types of Man and Woman; As They Exist, and as Manifested in Every-Day Life, Giving "the Truth, the Whole Truth, and Nothing but the Truth" The author of this book makes no pretensions to rhetorical finish; that kind of writing is hardly adapted to such a work. My purpose has been to express my thoughts in plain, simple language, so that every person, who has learned to read and write, will be able to comprehend my statements. I believe the too liberal use of foreign and high-sounding phrases (those hard to pronounce and not in common use) in scientific works is one of the chief reasons why such works are not more generally read and liked by the public.

Enjoy this classic work today. These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside How to Read Human Nature - Its Inner States and Outer Forms: Look inside the book: There is, however, a reaction of the Outer upon the Inner, which while equally true is not so generally recognized nor admitted, and we think it well to briefly call your attention to the same, for the reason that this correspondence between the Inner and the Outer-this reaction as well as the action-must be appreciated in order that the entire meaning and content of the subject of Human Nature may be fully grasped. ...We find nature everywhere around us recording its movements and marking the changes it has undergone in material forms, -in the crust of the earth, the composition of the rocks, the structure of the trees, the conformation of our bodies, and those spirits of ours, so closely connected with our material bodies, that so far as we know, they can think no thought, perform no action, without their presence and co-operation, may have been so joined in order to prePg 24serve a material and lasting record of all that they think and do.' About William Walker Atkinson, the Author: It is not known whether he ever acknowledged authorship of these pseudonymous works, but all of the supposedly independent authors whose writings are now credited to Atkinson were linked to one another by virtue of the fact that their works were released by a series of publishing houses with shared addresses and they also wrote for a series of magazines with a shared roster of authors. ...Randolph was known for embroidering the truth when it came to his own autobiography (he claimed that his mother Flora Randolph, an African American woman from Virginia, who died when he was eleven years old, had been a foreign princess) but he was actually telling the truth-or something very close to it, according to his biographer John Patrick Deveney-when he said that he had met the Maharajah in Europe and had learned from him the proper way to use both polished gemstones and Indian 'bhattah mirrors' in divination.

Book excerpt: "HOW TO READ HUMAN NATURE.Do you know what ""character"" is? The word itself, in its derivation and original usage, means: ""a stamp, mark or sign, engraved or stamped."" As time passed the term was applied to the personal peculiarities of individuals, and was defined as: ""the personal qualities or attributes of a person; the distinguishing traits of a person."" Later the term was extended to mean: ""the part enacted by anyone in a play."" In the common usage of the term we seek to convey an idea in which each and all of the above stated meanings are combined. A man's character is the result of impressions made upon his own mind, or those of the race. It is also the sum of his personal qualities and attributes. It is also, in a sense, the part he plays in the great drama of life.Each man's character has its inner phase consisting of the accumulated impressions of the past which seek to manifest in the present. And, likewise, the character of each[Pg 30] man manifests in an outer phase of form, mark, and stamp of personality. There are no two characters precisely alike. There is an infinite possibility of combination of the elements that go to make up character. This is accordance with what appears to be a universal law of nature, for there are no two blades of grass exactly alike, nor two grains of sand bearing an exact resemblance to each other. Nature seems to seek after and to manifest variety of form and quality. But, still, just as we may classify all things, animate and inanimate, into general classes and then into subordinate ones-each genus and each species having its particular characteristics, qualities and attributes, so we may, and do, classify human character into general classes and then into particular subdivisions into which each individual is found to fit. This fact makes it possible for us to study Human Nature as a science."

This book was released on 1878 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Physiognomy, whether understood in its most extensive or confined signification, is the origin of all human decisions, efforts, actions, expectations, fears, and hopes; of all pleasing and unpleasing sensations, which are occasioned by external objects, nor is there a man to he found who is not daily influenced by Physiognomy; not a man who has not figured to himself a countenance exceedingly lovely, or exceedingly hateful; not a man who does not more or less, the first time he encounters a stranger, observe, estimate, compare, and judge him, according to appearances, although he might hitherto have been a stranger to the science of Physiognomy; it is, therefore, a manifest truth, that whether or not sensible of it, all men are daily influenced by Physiognomy; and as Sultzer has affirmed, every man, consciously or unconsciously, understands something of Physiognomy. The most simple and inanimate object has its characteristic exterior, by which it is not only distinguished as a species, but individually; and shall the first, noblest, best harmonized, and most beauteous of beings, be denied all characteristic? But whatever may be opposed to the truth and certainty of the science of Physiognomy, it must be admitted that there is no object, thus considered, more important, more worthy of observation, more interesting than man, nor any occupation superior to that of disclosing the beauties and perfections of human nature"--Book.
