Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Life and the Study of Man The object of this work is neither to amaze nor amuse the reader, but to interest and instruct those who are seek ing improvement. There is very little in it, perhaps, that is new to every one, but the thoughts and reflections it. Embodies are brought forward in such novel connec tions, and they are presented in such unusual forms, that, even if the sentiments are found to be old, the application will doubtless appear to be new. The leading object of the writer is to do good to his fellow man, and if he fails. In his purpose, he will at least claim the credit of having done the best that he could It has not been his aim, this book, to appear either original or brilliant. It was. His design simply to bring to the notice of the reader, on the subjects which have been considered, the best thoughts that could be found in the language, and wherever he has discovered his ideas already in print, expressed in language better than he could write, or even as well, he has not deemed it either necessary or proper to write them anew, but has adopted the language of the author without change, believing as he does that we cannot make.

Download or read book Anthropology written by Edward B. Tylor and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anthropology: An Introduction to the Study of Man and Civilization While the various departments of the science of Man are extremely multifarious, ranging from body to mind, from language to music, from fire - making to morals, they are all matters to whose nature and history every well informed person ought to give some thought. It is much, however, for any single writer to venture to deal even in the most elementary way with so immense a variety of subjects. In such a task I have the right to ask that errors and imperfections should be lightly judged. I could not have attempted it at all but for the help of friends eminent in various branches of the science, whom I have been able to consult on doubtful and difficult points. My acknowledgments are especially due to Pro fessor Huxley and Dr. E. A. Freeman, Sir Henry Maine, Dr. Birch, Mr. Franks, Professor Flower, major-general pitt-rivers, Professor Sayce, Dr. Beddoe, Dr. D. H. Tuke, Professor W. K. Douglas, Mr. Russell Martineau, Mr. R. Garnett, Mr. Henry Sweet, Mr. Rudler, and many other friends whom I can only thank unnamed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Human Evolution: An Inductive Study of Man If all progress towards higher and nobler ideals of life start within the personality of men, it follows that the wish for the fulfilment of such must result in alteration of our social forms of existence; since society has continually altered in the past it would be absurd to suppose that it will not do so in the future. The great question for the vital tenth of mankind at present is - what will be the constitution of the social forms that will evolve from out Of our competitive commercial civilisation?

Download or read book A Study of Man and the Way to Health Classic Reprint written by J. D. Buck and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Man and the Way to Health There never was a time in the history of letters when so great facilities and so few barriers were presented to the study of man as now. Investigation is to-day practically free. There are no barriers to any study that does not interfere directly with the life, liberty and happiness of another. There may, indeed, be found a lurking remnant of the old persecution, but fortunately it is seldom marshaled in the name of religion. It rather issues from the camp of the nihilist, as a rather mild form of ridicule of him who ven tures to question the realm scientifically dubbed the un knowable. Yet even here the progress of science in the realm of nature's finer forces has been so great that the majority of really earnest and intelligent persons declare, that they are not prepared to say what is possible, and what not, and that they would hardly be surprised at any thing. Among the really devout and earnest souls it is usually enough that one earnestly seeks the truth for the benefit of man in order to enlist attention and courteous examination. The motto of these is any thing that is right and true for the benefit of humanity. It is true that there does not appear on the surface of things now-a-days so great lsolicitude for the glory of God, for the reason that it has been discerned in these later times that the glory of God depends on the elevation of man; for only as man's thoughts are purified and his life elevated can he seek and adore the source of all life, the bestower of all good, and the fountain of all truth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Races of Man: Differentiation and Dispersal of Man We see that this is quite a wide range of subjects, yet it does not include all that come into relation with man. History is the written word or symbol, but archeology or paleontology may afford a more nearly correct account of the past life and certainly of the past types Of man. A study of man's literature is but a study of his psychic life. Indeed, every sphere of human knowl edge touches upon anthropology. This book deals with the physical side Of man only, but it will be written in vain if it fails to make clear that the study of the differentiation of man and of his evolution in the formation of with their distribution over the world, is a subject of ever broadening human interest. NO matter what branch of learning we may select we will soon find that it has, directly or indirectly, some relation to man.

Download or read book Familiar Studies of Men and Books Classic Reprint written by Robert Louis Stevenson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Familiar Studies of Men and Books These studies are collected from the monthly press. One appeared in the "New Quarterly," one in "Macmillan's," and the rest in the "Cornhill Magazine." To the "Cornhill" I owe a double debt of thanks; first, that I was received there in the very best society, and under the eye of the very best of editors; and second, that the proprietors have allowed me to republish so considerable an amount of copy. These nine worthies have been brought together from many different ages and countries. Not the most erudite of men could be perfectly prepared to deal with so many and such various sides of human life and manners. To pass a true judgment upon Knox and Burns implies a grasp upon the very deepest strain of thought in Scotland - a country far more essentially different from England than many parts of America; for, in a sense, the first of these men re-created Scotland, and the second is its most essentially national production. To treat fitly of Hugo and Villon would involve yet wider knowledge, not only of a country foreign to the author by race, history, and religion, but of the growth and liberties of art. Of the two Americans, Whitman and Thoreau, each is the type of something not so much realized as widely sought after among the late generations of their countrymen; and to see them clearly in a nice relation to the society that brought them forth, an author would require a large habit of life among modern Americans. As for Yoshida, I have already disclaimed responsibility; it was but my hand that held the pen. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Natural History of Man: A Course of Elementary Lectures The study of the races of mankind in recent times, by the method of Natural History, has given rise to an important branch of knowledge known as the science of Anthropology. Societies have been established in various countries for its promotion, and many learned works have been written upon it in different lan guages. The subject has, moreover, now become one of such great public interest, that it is important it should be presented in its rudiments for the benefit of beginners. In this country, especially, where all the great races of the world-european, African, Asiatic, and American - fare thrown together on an im mense scale, and practical problems of great difficulty arise from the interaction of diverse foreign populations, it is desirable that broad scientific views of the subject should be widely dissemi nated.
