Synopsis
Excerpt from The Study of Man
These words of John Ray have many a time stimulated me; may they encourage others to study human-kind. Once more I must insist on the sad fact that the old land marks are being rapidly removed, and there is a pressing need for immediate investigations in anthropology in this as well as in all the other parts of the world.
It is now my pleasing duty to take this opportunity of thanking those who have assisted me in their various ways.
