Ecce Homo

This annotated bibliography, the first book-length survey of the historic development of inquiry in physical anthropology, brings together a broad selection of source materials that will enable the student to obtain an accurate perspective on its history and perceive the underlying thematic continuity of anthropological thought. The first of four chronological section into which the bibliography is divided covers the literature from ancient times through the beginning of the Enlightenment at the close of the 17th century. The 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries are treated respectively in the sections that follow.
