Opis

This volume is intended to serve as a companion to Febvre's Geographical Introduction to History, which estimated the value of environment as a factor in history. The present volume considers the racial factor, the anthropological reality which depends on somatic characters, build, height, color of hair and eyes, craniological and facial form, etc. This the author carefully distinguishes from such artificial entities as peoples, nations, civilizations, or language groups.
