RESEARCHES INTO-THE PHYSICAL HISTORY OF
MANKIND.
Vol. I. Third Edition.
et We are here presented with the substance of all the information that has been
derived, during the last fifty years, from the enterprise of enlightened travellers
who have penetrated the wildernesses of Africa, Asia, and America, in search of
knowledge, physical, political, and geographical. The various branchés of the
great human family are placed before u s ; every continent supplies its people and
kindred and tribes, in order that we may be put in possession of materials for constructing
on a broad and stable foundation, thé Physical History of Man. Our
limits will not permit us to follow the author with all the minuteness that we could
desire. The reader, however, cannot fail to have anticipated our opinion
able and most instructive work, suffice it to say, that it contains all the physiological
knowledge displayed in the lectures of L aw r en c e , without the objectionable
speculations in which the teacher unfortunately indulged; the industry of W h it e ,
freed from his degrading fancies; the science of B l t j m e n b a c h , founded on safer
views of religious truth and moral obligation; and the research of Da u b en to n ,
with greater eloquence and powers of writing. I t has employed the labour of the
indefatigable author during the last twenty years; and it is worthy of_all ihfe care
and learning which he has expended on his arduous undertaking» Review oj' the

' « are very far from thinking, that researches of this kind are unconnected
with the proper studies of a medical practitioner, whose mind wift^alwayjjbe
benefited by widening his views of all that relates to human beings, and . to whom
the most varied knowledge of the capacities; varieties, and peculiarities of the
human constitution become valuable by augmenting his„resources under aU emerge
encies of human constitutions. These studies would Seem well calculated to improve
and enlarge all our views of sickness and of health, and our means of defending
mankind from the various evils to which they are-expos$M^-London
