Written by Franz Boas with three figures and some tables. Franz Boas has had an enduring influence on anthropology. Virtually all anthropologists today accept Boas's commitment to empiricism and his methodological cultural relativism.

Finally, anthropologists continue to honor his critique of racial ideologies.
