Physiognomy and the meaning of expression in nineteenth-century culture.

Cambridge, England: Cambridge University Press, 2001.

"...explores the concepts of physiognomy and eugenics and raises questions about what are "legitimate" sciences.[2] She describes how "the appeal of physiognomy lay not so much in any of its scientific pretension but rather in how it seemed to validate an already widespread cultural conviction" (Wikipedia article on Lucy Hartley, accessed 02-2018).
