About this title

Synopsis

On A Method Of Investigating The Development Of Institutions: Applied To Laws Of Marriage And Descent (1889) is a book written by Edward Burnett Tylor. The book is a detailed analysis of the development of institutions, with a focus on the laws of marriage and descent. Tylor proposes a method for investigating the evolution of these institutions, which involves studying the customs and practices of different cultures and tracing their historical development. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the laws of marriage and descent in different societies, and explores the ways in which these laws have evolved over time. Tylor also discusses the social and cultural factors that have influenced the development of these institutions, and provides insights into the ways in which they continue to shape modern society. Overall, this book is an important contribution to the field of anthropology and provides a valuable perspective on the evolution of institutions and their impact on human society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
