And the rabbit hole only goes deeper!
"Craniometrists virtually without exception dismissed Phrenology as crackpot science while promulgating an alternative nonsense of their own. Craniometry focused on more precise and comprehensive measurements of volume, shape, and structure of the head and brain but in pursuit, it must be said, of equally preposterous conclusions. (Bill Bryson)"
