About This Item
8vo, original cloth, gilt title on front cover, illustrated, 515 pp. Joints cracked, binding worn, some darkening and aging to contents; otherwise about very good. A 19th century view of the sexes. This is partially medically based analysis, but it also goes into temperament issues too. Meant to be a manual for the sexes on how to live and act.
