Description
Summary:The need for anthropological study1 on the part of missionaries is widely recognized today. The great interest in such publications as P.A. and the many recent hooks and articles dealing with anthropology as related to the missionary task2 is evidence of this fact. Yet, many are those engaged in missionary vocations who have had little, if any, opportunity to come formally into contact with an ordered presentation of the source materials of anthropology. Correspondence study on the field offers a real opportunity for a missionary to broaden his base and acquire a new understanding of the people and problems which he faces daily.
