Excerpt from Notes and Queries on Anthropology
It has been found necessary to recast entirely the first part Anthropography owing to the great development of this branch of the science. In doing so the editor has had the assistance of Dr. Beddoe, who was author of almost the entire first part of the former edition. Mr. George Atkinson has rendered valuable assistance in the production of the coloured plate, which it is hoped will be more permanent than that in the first edition. The sections on Medical Anthropology in the former edition have been revised and rewritten, and several new sections added; for assis tance in this department, thanks are due to Dr. Robert F elkin.
