In this work J P Zollinger aims, "in a scientifically justifiable way, to integrate what is known regarding the world of political civilization into the general framework of modern evolutionary science, to break down the ancient superstition that the world of man, stands outside the general world order, or that he lives in a hermetically sealed domain within nature." The focal point of Zollinger's investigation is evolutionary theory interpreted in the light of Bohr's complementary principle, which Zollinger sees as the most fundamental principle of natural development and thus of social development a well.

No Binding. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 309-334 pages with map and photographs. Quarto (10" x 7") unbound in loose pages. volume 78. First edition. Matthew Williams Stirling was an American ethnologist, archaeologist and later an administrator at several scientific institutions in the field. He is best known for his discoveries relating to the Olmec civilization. By 1929, Stirling had begun suspecting that the artifacts emerging out of Mexico belonged to a time much earlier than attributed to the Olmecs. From the BAE, he directed excavations in fringes of the area thought to be Maya. He himself traveled in 1938 to the western margin and concentrated on the Tres Zapotes site. He noted the position of the colossal head surrounded by four mounds and the presence of a vast mound group in the area. He interested the National Geographic Society enough to be granted funds for excavation. This began a sixteen-year association with the site. Condition: Loose pages from the magazine else very good.
