- Summary:
- Using paleontology, evolutionary biology, genetics, the history of science, and social history, Gould tells the fascinating story of how racial differences have been misunderstood by scientists from pre-Darwinian days to the present to justify oppression, exploitation, and persecution. He describes how new genetic research methods confirm the African origins of homo sapiens.
