phrenology
n. 1. a 19th century
branch of psychology that studied the size, geography, and hairiness of someone’s
skull in order to determine his personality and mental capability. Now chiefly replaced by the study of the
left and right brain and other brainless myths that
postulate fanciful, utterly unverified correlations between the brain and what
goes on in a person’s mind.
