Description of Contents:
- *Las razas humanas* (written in Spanish) is an encyclopaedia of anthropology dedicated to the study of primitive and peasant societies and cultures. It is by no means restricted to presenting the physical characteristics of the peoples studied. Of course, topics relating to physical anthropology are not excluded, but they are dealt with in a rather peripheral and superficial manner. The central focus of the encyclopaedia is the subject of cultural anthropology: the way of life and customs of contemporary primitive and peasant societies, the environment in which they live, their technology and economy, their social structure, their political organisation, their ideology, their religion and magic, and their arts.
- It contains numerous photographs inserted within the text, in both black and white and colour.
