This illustration serves as a visual representation of their attempts at unraveling the complexities of personality by examining specific regions within the brain. Through this thought-provoking image, we are reminded of North America's rich history in behavioral science. It is a testament to American curiosity and innovation during the 1800s when theories such as phrenology were explored with great enthusiasm.
