Four pages, mostly typed with written annotations, contain a transcription of a discussion among five or six parties, Malinowski presumably among them, on the nature of culture as the central subject uniting many of the social sciences, as part of a seminar at Yale University. Topics include: the nature of race; primitive religion; distribution of wealth; family; and technological advancement. The content is nearly identical to that of the previous document, but has been retyped individually, has different written annotations, and lacks the written introductory notes and a title page.

The course is meant to consider: the characteristics of science in a field where experimentation is not possible; problems of verifiability; functionalism; and modes of observation and analysis.
