Anthropological Papers (1891) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781165467655)

Anthropological Papers is a collection of essays and papers written by Rudolph Virchow, a prominent German physician and anthropologist, and published in 1891. The book covers a wide range of topics related to anthropology, including the physical characteristics of different races, the evolution of human societies, and the relationship between culture and biology. Virchow's work was groundbreaking for its time, as he rejected many of the prevailing theories about race and biology that were popular in the late 19th century. Instead, he emphasized the importance of cultural factors in shaping human societies and argued that racial differences were largely superficial. The book is an important historical document in the field of anthropology and provides valuable insights into the development of the discipline in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
