Let us hope that in our enlarged JOURNAL next year, there may be room
to review the most important features of social and scientific
progress as well as to present gradually the elements of that
world-embracing science which is called Anthropology,--the
presentation of which will require at least ten years. I am making
every effort at present to prepare the improved and enlarged edition
of the Therapeutic Sarcognomy for the coming winter.
