| Summary | "Buchanan's Journal of Man, June 1887" by Joseph R. Buchanan is a scientific publication written during the late 19th century. The journal discusses topics related to educational sciences, philosophical inquiry, and social reforms, focusing on the development of human understanding and capabilities. It aims to challenge conventional beliefs in education and society, presenting progressive ideas that seek to uplift humanity through knowledge and reform. The opening of the journal introduces a critical perspective on the current state of education and intellectual culture, particularly in America. Buchanan critiques the narrow focus of academic institutions on trivial subjects, arguing that significant human issues are neglected in favor of antiquated topics. He proposes a "New Education" that emphasizes the development of the brain and soul, advocating for innovative teaching techniques such as hypnotism and psychometry to enhance learning and moral character. The beginning of this journal sets the stage for an exploration of these themes, presenting a call for a transformative approach to education and societal reform that resonates throughout the subsequent writings.
