Character reading from the face

Through physiognomy you can know and improve yourself. Parents and teachers should use it for understanding and bringing up children. They can learn to understand why one child is timid and another in the same family loves to ” show off”; why one child is diffident and the other destructive; why one concentrates and another will never finish a game or a task.

Alexander Walker wrote Physiognomy Founded on Physiology, and he was a writer of note on anatomical and physiological subjects. He claimed that the face was the mirror of the mind, the muscles that surround the features being, more or less, under control of will.
