D Grossman points out that Kroeber's statement on the superorganic
represents the real Krobere.

----------------------------Original message----------------------------
Riley indicates that Kroeber in 1924 stated that psychology would
explain anthropology. However,Kroeber,in 1917 stated that the superorganic
could not be explained by reduction to the organic and inorganic levels.
I think that is the real Kroeber.
