Abstract

THIS book is intended as a study of the child in the light of the literature of evolution; an attempt to record and, if possible, interpret some of the most interesting and important phenomena of human beginnings in the individual and in the race. Anthropology, as a science embracing many aspects of the human race, is concerned with inquiry as to the evolution of man, and applies fresh knowledge, gained by scientific methods, to the correlation of ascertained facts. The book refers more to the psychological aspect of human development than to the physiological causes of evolution; dealing in a philosophical spirit—not always by strictly scientific processes—with the several subjects dealt with, evidence is afforded by the collection of data and the opinions expressed by many writers rather than based upon the author's own observations and arguments.
