Introduction To Anthropology (1863)

Introduction to Anthropology is a book written by Theodor Waitz, first published in 1863. It is a comprehensive introduction to the field of anthropology, covering topics such as the history of anthropology, the study of human biology, cultural anthropology, linguistics, and archaeology. Waitz's work was influential in shaping the discipline of anthropology in the 19th century, and his approach to the subject was characterized by a focus on empirical observation and the use of scientific methods. The book is divided into two volumes, with the first volume covering the history of anthropology and the second volume focusing on the various subfields of the discipline. Waitz's writing is clear and accessible, making this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in anthropology, whether as a student or a general reader.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
