Starter
Does the way people perceive you change the way you perceive yourself? Is physiognomy legit?


Agenda
 Physiognomy and Creditworthiness: Economist Article

Phrenology: Greek roots phren= mind, ology= study of  (logos= knowledge). It was a pseudoscience based around measuring the size of one's head to determine brain size and capacity. It differed from craniology because it entailed mapping characteristics onto the head/mind based on the size and shape of one's head.

Eugenics:  Applied science of the bio-social movement that advocates for the use of practices aimed at improving the genetic composition of a population by promoting the reproductive of more desired people and traits and the reduction of reproduction of less desired people and traits (through segregation, forced abortions, sterilization, etc...)
