Sociology

DDC classification:

306 LOW

Summary: During the last twenty years the several social sciences have been drawing together. Anthropologists, according to their individual interests, have tried to assimilate what history, economics, sociology, and psychology have to offer. In accordance with this trend the present book is, in principle, not a treatise on primitive society, but on the social organization of all peoples and of all times. An ethnographer naturally uses many illustrations from aboriginal tribes, but their purpose here is merely to indicate the great range of possible social arrangements and to help disengage what is indispensable from what is not.
