Vitosophy



Vitosophy (portmanteau of the Latin vita, "life", and the Greek sophia, "wisdom": or "The Wisdom of Life", "The Wise Way of Living") is a medico-philosophical school (and general system of self-improvement), devised and promoted by William Windsor (and his Boston College of Vitosophy) beginning in the late nineteenth century, based heavily on phrenology and general understandings of human genetics (including eugenics) of the period.
