Buchanan's Journal of Man, October 1887 by Joseph R. Buchanan

Description

Buchanan’s Journal of Man, October 1887 by Joseph R. Buchanan is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This work contains a variety of essays and articles aimed at exploring the nature of humanity, including anthropological views, psychological insights, and philosophical musings on medicine and the human condition. The journal’s content seeks to connect advancements in science with metaphysical concepts, emphasizing an understanding of man that transcends physicality. At the start of the publication, the reader is introduced to an essay by Dr. F. Hartmann that discusses the Oriental perspective on anthropology, linking spiritual ideas with modern healing practices. The discourse addresses the relationship between the heart and mind, noting the heart’s significance as a life force and a center of love, while the brain is described as the seat of thought and intelligence. Hartmann juxtaposes these views with Dr. Buchanan’s own theory of Sarcognomy, the science of understanding human nature, urging a holistic approach to medicine that incorporates emotional, spiritual, and intellectual dimensions. This opening sets the stage for a blend of scientific inquiry and philosophical exploration throughout the journal. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
