![с Bibliographical Essay Almost any effort to explain those attitudes of race inferiority that developed within the context of science during the late nineteenth century necessarily covers an enormous amount of material. Among the various source books for bibliographical data are William Z. Ripley, A Selected Bibliography of the Anthropology and Ethnology of Europe (Boston, 1899); Felix M. Keesing, Culture Change: An Analysis and Bibliography of Anthropological Sources to iQS^ (Stanford, Calif., 1953); and the Catalogue of Books in the Library of the Anthropological Society of London up to ]uly ist, i86y (London, 1867). Of the three, Keesing's bibliography is the most beneficial as it presents a chronolog¬ ical listing of books and an assessment of anthropological thought in each time period. The latter catalogue, a product of the Anthropological Society of London, is significant for the type of materials that provided the basis for the more substantive ethnological theories of the nine¬ teenth century. In addition, there are numerous bibliographies con¬ cerning the Negro. Some of the more useful are Erwin К. Welsch, The Negro in the United States: A Besearch Guide (Bloomington, 111., 1965); Elizabeth W.
