See Haddon A. C. , Anthropology (London, 1910), and the revised edition of 1934. In the earlier edition of this book over half the space is devoted to physical anthropology, archaeology, palaeontology and linguistics, with particular emphasis on discoveries in craniology and endorsement of recent developments in criminology and eugenics. In the 1934 edition, Haddon says much less about the contributions of James Hunt, the racist ideologue of the London Anthropological Society, omits any mention of Galton and eugenics, and qualifies his approval of Tylor, but the basic balance of emphasis between physical and cultural anthropology is retained. Also, Penniman's T. K. One hundred years of anthropology (London, 1935) contains a chronological table of events significant for the development of anthropology which includes, along with the usual landmarks, discoveries in brain research, anatomy and endocrinology. This book contains an excellent bibliography on the history of anthropology.
