Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Anthropological Review, 1863, Vol. 1
But I would not have it supposed that the science Of Anthropology has any right to be confined to such limits. Anthropology is, on the contrary, the science of the whole nature of Man. With such a meaning it will include nearly the whole circle of sciences. Biology, anatomy, chemistry, natural philosophy, and physiology must all furnish the anthropologist with materials from which he may make his deductions. While Ethnology treats of the history or science of nations or races, we have to deal with the origin and development of humanity. SO while Ethnography traces the position and arts of the different races of Man, it is our business to investigate the laws regulating the distribution of mankind' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
