ABSTRACT

First published in 2013. This volume is intended to serve as a companion to Febvre's Geographical Introduction to History, which estimated the value of 'environment' as a factors in history. The present volume considers the 'racial' factors, the anthological reality which depends on somatic characters, build, height, colour of hair and eyes, craniological and facial form etc. the author carefully distinguishes from such artificial entities as peoples, nations, civilisation or language groups.
