Abstract
DR. A. G. KELLER'S small book of questions in ethnography is intended for the use of the “intelligent and partially instructed layman.” The specialist, he informs us, needs no such manual, and the utterly un-instructed are unfitted to use one with discrimination and result. We agree with him. The 912 questions comprise a very wide range of ethnographical inquiry under the following heads:—(1) maintenance; (2) perpetuation; (3) gratification; (4) religious and superstitious ideas and usages; (5) the societal system; (6) contact and modification.
