This book is a study in depth of the work of Franz Boas and twenty
of his students at Columbia University in the early years of the
twentieth century. Collectively they laid the entire institutional
as well as the intellectual foundations of American anthropology as
it exists today. The book begins with a discussion of the
historical context of Boasian anthropology, and an overview of its
nature and limitations. The work of Boas and his leading students
is then discussed in detail, including biographical data, a review
and critique of their research, a review in detail of each of their
major publications, and an overall assessment of their contribution
to anthropology, as seen in their own time and today.
