About Researches into the Physical History of Man

Prichards Researches into the Physical History of Man stands as a cornerstone of pre-Darwinian anthropology, often hailed as the most significant English work of the nineteenth century. Recognized as the Father of Anthropology, Prichard argues for the unity of the human species, suggesting that while humanity has diverged into various races, we all share a common origin. He boldly states in his Preface, all mankind constitute but one race or proceed from a single family. Notably, Prichard hints at Africa as the cradle of humanity, asserting that the earliest humans were likely of African descent. This pioneering perspective raises intriguing questions about the historical acknowledgment of human equality and dignity—could this be an early recognition of the sentiment that Black Lives Matter? The text includes Latin, Greek, and German passages recorded by Kazbek. (Summary by John Greenman & Wikipedia)

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
