The Races of Man and their Distribution

The Races of Man and Their Distribution by A.C. Haddon, first published in 1898, is a comprehensive study of human racial classifications and their geographical distribution. Haddon, a prominent anthropologist, explores the physical, cultural, and linguistic traits of various human populations across the globe. The work combines field observations with a review of scientific literature, offering insights into the diversity of human societies. Though influenced by 19th-century racial theories, Haddon’s work remains significant in the history of anthropology and human geography.
