Publisher's Synopsis
Introduction to Anthropology is a seminal work by Theodor Waitz, originally published in 1863. The book is an in-depth exploration of the field of anthropology, covering topics such as the history of human societies, the development of language and culture, and the evolution of human beings.

The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it an excellent introduction to the field of anthropology for students and scholars alike. It is also an important historical document, providing insight into the early development of the field and the ways in which anthropologists were thinking about human societies in the 19th century.
