PHYSICAL EXPRESSION: Its Modes and Principles. By FRANCIS WARNER, M.
D., Assistant Physician, and Lecturer on Botany, to the London
Hospital, etc. With 51 Illustrations. 12mo. Cloth, $1.75.
“In the term ‘Physical Expression,’ Dr. Warner included all those
changes of form and feature occurring in the body which may be
interpreted as evidences of mental action. At first thought it would
seem that facial expression is the most important of these outward signs
of inner processes; but a little observation will convince one that the
posture assumed by the body—the poise of the head and the position of
the hands—as well as the many alternations of color and of general
nutrition, are just as striking evidences of the course of thought. The
subject thus developed by the author becomes quite extensive, and is
exceedingly interesting. The work is fully up to the standard maintained
in ‘The International Scientific Series.’”—_Science._
“Among those, besides physicians, dentists, and oculists, to whom Dr.
Warner’s book will be of benefit are actors and artists. The art of
gesticulation and of postures is dealt with clearly from the scientific
student’s point of view. In the chapters concerning expression in the
head, expression in the face, expression in the eyes, and in that on art
criticism, the reader may find many new suggestions.”—_Philadelphia
Press._
