A compelling history of how popular phrenology featured in the fates of people living in, and moving through, the settler-colonial world of nineteenth-century Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand. Innovatively using historical newspapers and other archives, Roginski traces the careers of a range of popular phrenologists and those they encountered.
