The book is a treatise on a hat that is designed to promote the growth of certain undeveloped bumps on the head. The author claims that these bumps are related to the faculties of the mind, and that by promoting their growth, one can enhance their mental abilities. The book goes into detail about the history of the idea, the science behind it, and the practical application of the hat. The author provides illustrations and diagrams to explain the different bumps and how they relate to different mental faculties. Philo also includes testimonials from individuals who have used the hat and experienced positive results. He also addresses skeptics and critics of the idea, providing counterarguments to their objections. Overall, The Patent Hat is a unique and intriguing exploration of a little-known theory about the relationship between the bumps on the head and mental abilities.
