Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Growing Up in New Guinea: A Comparative Study of Primitive Education
If a long line of devoted biologists had been breed ing guinea pigs or fruit ?ies for a hundred years and recording the results, and some careless Vandal burnt the painstaking record and killed the survivors, we would cry out in anger at the loss to science. Yet, when history, without any such set purpose, has presented us with the results of not a hundred years' experiment on guinea pigs, but a thousand years' experiment on human beings, we permit the records to be extinguished with out a protest.
