Joseph Rodes Buchanan
Joseph Rodes Buchanan (1814 in Frankfort, Kentucky – 1899) was an American physician and professor of physiology at the Eclectic Medical Institute in Covington, Kentucky. Buchanan proposed the terms Psychometry and Sarcognomy.
Buchanan came to prominence in the 1840s when mesmerism and spiritualism were popularized.〔(Dr. J. R. Buchanan Speaks Before Some Spiritualists -- A Little About Miss Mollie Fancher and a Great Deal About Dr. Buchanan. ) ''nytimes.com'', December 29, 1878, p. 12. Retrieved February 13, 2010〕 He is given credit for coining the term "Psychometry"〔Spence, Lewis ''Encyclopedia of Occultism and Parapsychology, Part 2'', Kessinger Publishing, LLC (February 1, 2003), (p. 754 ). ISBN 0-7661-2817-2〕 (''soul-measuring'') as the name of his own "science" whereby knowledge is acquired directly by the "psychometer" (the instrument of the soul).〔Buchanan, Joseph Rodes, ''(Manual of Psychometry : the Dawn of a New Civilization )'' Boston, Frank H. Hodges (4th edition), 1893, pp. 3–4〕 Having promoted his science from the 1840s onward in 1893 he released a comprehensive treatise entitled ''Manual of Psychometry: the Dawn of a New Civilization'' in which he predicted that Psychometry would eventually supersede and revolutionize every other field of science.〔Buchanan, 1893, pp. 4–5〕 Though himself a physician in lectures he denounced contemporary schools of medicine as "educated ignorance" while promoting Psychometry and appealing to Spiritualists.〔 His work inspired other Spiritualism-based scientists such as Stephen Pearl Andrews.〔(A discourse on Seven Sciences.; Cerebral Physiology, Cerebral Psychology, Sarcognomy, Psychometry, Pneumatology, Pathology, and Cerebral Pathology. ) ''The New York Times'', March 17, 1878〕
