Description
A history of evolutionary theory and ideas about race and racism - explains the original controversy over evolution in Darwin's time; the corruption of evolutionary theory into eugenics; the conflict between laboratory research in genetics and field work in physical anthrolpology and biology, which gave rise to the "new synthesis" of modern evolutionary biology, which in turn cast new light on the age-old debate over nature versus nurture; and the continuing controversies over the heritability of intelligence, criminal behavior, and other traits.
