INTELLIGENT PUBLIC OPINION. "The consensus of the competent."
BUCHANAN'S "JOURNAL OF MAN." "Perhaps no journal published in the
world is so far in advance of the age."--_Plain Dealer, Cleveland_.
"His method is strictly scientific; he proceeds on the sure ground of
observation and experiment; he admits no phenomena as reality which he
has not thoroughly tested, and is evidently more desirous to arrive at
a correct understanding of nature than to establish a system.... We
rejoice that they are in the hands of one who is so well qualified as
the editor of the Journal to do them justice, both by his indomitable
spirit of research, his cautious analysis of facts, and his power of
exact and vigorous expression."--_New York Tribune_.
"This sterling publication is always welcome to our table. Many of its
articles evince marked ability and striking originality."--_National
Era, Washington City_.
"It is truly refreshing to take up this monthly.... When we drop
anchor and sit down to commune with philosophy as taught by Buchanan,
the fogs and mists of the day clear up."--_Capital City Fact_.
"This work is a pioneer in the progress of science."--_Louisville
Democrat_.
"After a thorough perusal of its pages, we unhesitatingly pronounce it
one of the ablest publications in America."--_Brandon Post_.
"To hear these subjects discussed by ordinary men, and then to read
Buchanan, there is as much difference as in listening to a novice
performing on a piano, and then to a Chevalier Gluck or a
Thalberg."--_Democrat Transcript_.
BUCHANAN'S "SYSTEM OF ANTHROPOLOGY." "We have no hesitation in
asserting the great superiority of the form in which it is presented
by Dr. Buchanan, whether we regard its practical accuracy or its
philosophical excellence."--_American Magazine of Homoeopathy_.
"The author has long been known as a distinguished Professor of
Physiology, whose name is identified with one of the most remarkable
discoveries of the age, the impressibility of the brain.... We are
confident Buchanan's 'Anthropology' will soon supersede the
fragmentary systems of Gall and Spurzheim, the metaphysicians and
phrenologists."--_Daily Times, Cincinnati_.
