Joseph Buchanan championed the fringe sciences of his day, and this December 1887 journal shows the range: social commentary, notes on Buddhism reaching America, and his own theories of the mind mapped onto the skull. A curious document from the borderlands of Victorian thought. For readers drawn to the odd, earnest byways of nineteenth-century ideas.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
