First published in the Annee Sociologique in 1903, this classic essay has been translated by Rodney Needham, who also provides a critical introduction. [Primitive Classification] will impress the reader with its quiet elegance, its direct, logical form, its clarity of style, its spirit of careful, yet bold, exploration.--Harry Alpert, American Journal of Sociology Particularly instructive for anyone who wonders what social anthropology is: how, if at all, it differs from sociology and whether it has any unifying theoretical problem.--F. K. Lehman, American Sociological Review
