Races and People

(1955)
A non fiction book by

 
 
Together, these two well known writers have managed to explain in simple terms the very complex subject of race, discussing in detail genes, cells, chromosomes and blood. Here is a selection of chapter titles to give some idea of the scope of the book:

The Mystic Word "Race": What Races Are Not; Skin and Bones; Through the Microscope: From Parent to Child: The Rules of Inheritance: Rules Can be Broken. When the reader has finished the book (which is fun to read and full of touches of wit in addition to being informative), many of his preconceived notions about race will be changed. He will know why he is as he is, why others are as they are, how the differences came about and, most important of all, he will be convinced that there is no such thing as a "superior race."
