More about the book
The 1942 text challenges the traditional views on race by asserting that it is primarily a social construct rather than a biological determinant. Montagu's work emphasizes the disconnect between genetics and culture, arguing against the notion of significant biological differences among races. This abridged version makes his revolutionary ideas accessible to students, fostering a deeper understanding of the socio-cultural dimensions of race.
