Summary:"When the head of the Human Genome Project and a former President of the United States both assure us that we are all, regardless of race, genetically 99.9% the same, the clear implication is that racial differences among us are superficial. The concept of race, many would argue, is an inadequate map of the physical reality of human variation.
In short, human races are not biologically valid categories, and the very ideas of race and racial differences are morally suspect in that they support racism." "In Race, Vincent Sarich and Frank Miele marshall evidence from history, law, psychology, and genetics that argues against the received media and academic wisdom."--Jacket.
