“You know you’ve read a good book when you turn the last page and feel a little as if you have lost a friend.” –Paul Sweeney
Synopsis
A provocative overview of the history of the race concept in European and American science, based on current research that shows how race and science grew together in Western thought. * Extensive bibliographic essays citing not only original scientific papers dating back to the 18th century, but also current research into the social and historical contexts from which that work emerged * Biographical sketches of the most important figures in race science, from François Bernier and Mamie Phipps Clark to Gordon W. Allport and Ashley Montagu
