Abstract
DR. L. FROBENIUS is a prolific writer on ethnological subjects, and we welcome a translation of a book which gives in popular language the results of his wide reading. The book deals with an extensive range of subjects, upon many of which very diverse views are held, and the English reader will be pleased to be able readily to grasp the point of view of a German ethnologist; but a book, in some cases, has to be judged by what is omitted as well as by what it actually contains.
