Professor Parmelee has brought together the results of 
recent work in biology in general and in zodlogy and 
neurology in particular, in genetic and comparative psy- 
chology, and in anthropology, and he has used them in 
making an analysis of human behavior. The study is 
developed from the physico-chemical and the anatomical 
and physiological bases of behavior, through the behavior 
of the lower animals to the behavior of man, the final 
chapters describing the factors of social evolution. 
The book contains much that is vital to psychologists, 
anthropologists, and social scientists, and will be of great 
value to the general reader, bringing together in convenient 
form the results of work which is of so much significance 
for the study of human behavior and human nature. To 
those engaged in educational work it will be of great use, 
and will be found valuable as a college and university text- 
book in certain courses in psychology and sociology. 
“It is an important, scholarly book which promises to be of great 
interest and aid to students of psychology, ethics, anthropology, and 
some departments of sociology.” — PROFESSOR Ross of the University 
of Wisconsin. 
“The materials upon which it is based have been accumulating for 
some time, and in Professor Parmelee we seem to have found the master 
hand to shape them. His purpose of carrying the evolution of human 
nature and culture into wider fields, using this book as a basis, is com- 
mendable.” — PROFESSOR GOWIN of Wesleyan University.
