Présentation de l'éditeur

The adoption of this test might not appreciably alter the general scheme of zoological classification, but it would draw attention to a peculiar feature of the human species. The vast majority of the authorities have always maintained the specific unity of mankind. Fresh efforts are made in our day to disrupt it, at least with reference to the earliest prehistoric remains, but to most anthropologists it still seems that the differences between curly-haired and straighthaired, or between Paleolithic, Neolithic, and modern races, are not sharp and deep enough to constitute distinct species. Yet this human species includes extremes of mental power more widely removed from each other than are the most divergent representatives of many genera, if not orders, of lower animals. The most dissimilar specimens of the sub-class of theB irds, for instance, do not differ from each other in frame so much as theY ahgan or the A eta differs from the cultivated European in mental endowment.
