Basing Point Pricing and Regional Development: A Case Study of the Iron and Steel Industry

This work deals with the history of anthropology, setting out to define the historiographer as a composer, responsive to his own lived experience and to those whom he encounters. The essays address the work and influence of Franz Boas and Bronislaw Malinowski.

'This volume is likely to prove indispensable to historians of anthropology in general and of British anthropology in particular. A wide range of historical skills are on display, from traditional textual analysis to historical sociology of the most sophisticated sort, and the more or less through chronological coverage extends from the era of classical evolutionism virtually up to the present.' --Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences
