A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The number of Professor Ridgeways friends and the extraordinary range of his interests made a choice of contributors both necessary and dificult. Many of those who were first approached were in the end prevented by the pressure of ofiicial or other duties from taking part in the work; several others, who first heard of it when a circular was issued last June, were eager to join in the project, but the book had already outgrown the limit of size which had been fixed by agreement with the Syndics of the University Press, Many more friends therefore of Professor Ridge way are to be regarded as taking part in this tribute to him than those whose names appear as writers of papers in the volume. For the anthropological chapters the editor sought the advice of Dr A, C. Haddon, F.R.S., and Dr W. H. R. Rivers, F.R.S. The first half of the book was planned in consultation with Professor R, S. Conway, Litt.D., and Mr E. Harrison, M,A,; but the co-operation of these two scholars was by no means confined to the classical chapters, and it is largely owing to their active assistance and whole-hearted sympathy that the editor has been able to carry the work to a successful issue. The stafiof the University Press have earned the gratitude of all friends of Professor Ridge way by helping to produce a volume worthy of the occasion. November
