| Sumario: | Chapter 9 of the book "Spirit & Reason" is presented. It highlights Samuel Morton, Lewis henry Morgan, Frank Cushing and Franz Boas as white men who studied anthropology just to fulfill their childhood fantasies of playing Indians. It also argues that anthropology literature cannot be regarded as science, because it reflects the psychological problems of anthropologists rather than their honest effort to learn something about the Indians. |
