Excerpt from The Scope and Content of the Science of Anthropology: Historical Review, Library Classification and Select, Annotated Bibliography; With a List of the Chief Publications of Leading Anthropological Societies and Museums
Anthropology may after all now be said to be well out of its teens, and while certain parts of its vast boun dary are still only dimly defined, I trust that the views here adopted are those that have the best chance of pre vailing at least during the next few decades. At any rate the librarian and, I h0pe, also the scientist, generally too busy with original investigation in some corner of his field to spend much thought on questions of terminology and classification, will be sure to judge with leniency a faithful attempt to record the present state of the science.
