| Summary | "Buchanan's Journal of Man, November 1887" by Joseph R. Buchanan is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The journal addresses various issues related to science, education, and health, emphasizing the importance of progressive thought and reform in these areas. It includes topics such as the slow acceptance of new scientific ideas, educational reform, and critical views on contemporary medical practices. The opening portion of the journal discusses the challenges faced by modern science due to entrenched beliefs within educational institutions. Buchanan critiques the way traditional colleges resist progress and fail to embrace novel scientific ideas, such as psychometry. He highlights the potential of progressive educational models and advocates for an understanding of man's spiritual nature. Additionally, he showcases notable figures in medicinal practices, such as Robert Howard Hutton, illustrating a clash between established medical authority and alternative healing practices that offer significant success despite skepticism. Overall, the text sets the tone for a journal dedicated to exploring and promoting innovative ideas in education and medicine. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
