In this 1966 text Dr Burrow investigates the reasons why Victorian pioneers of social science were habitually approaching the study of other societies with largely positivistic and evolutionary methodologies. As a result of this, anthropology appeared to be seeking affirmation of assumed laws and stages of progress, rather than looking to appreciate and understand other societies in terms of their own uniqueness and functionality. Here, the author not only studies Victorian thought on evolution in general, but also seeks to contextualise those ideas which are often classified as exclusively Darwinist within the studies and writings of other leading figures in Victorian science and social science, whose works often predate The Origin of the Species. His book also makes an incredibly important contribution to the ways in which ideas on evolution and society operated within the framework of general Victorian thought and assumption.

最后的conclusion章比较有启发，揭示了evolutionary positivism兴衰的深层原因。
评分老派学者写书确实不好读，纵横捭阖的，功利主义到进化论的转变分析似乎还只是历史分析而没有哲学分析，所以线索特别难拉出来。需要重看
评分十九世紀中葉後的社會科學，以進化論和歷史階段論為主要的方法和預設，這並非是對達爾文生物演化論的單純模仿，而是有其從十八、九世紀思想史貫串下來的理路。蘇格蘭學派的比較史在十九世紀初衰弱，功利主義的政治經濟學取而代之，卻不足以解釋維多利亞時期英國人所認知的世界，以及英國自身的位置。
评分最后的conclusion章比较有启发，揭示了evolutionary positivism兴衰的深层原因。
