Sinossi
Excerpt from Human Races
When we wrote Races, the mere mention of race was still un comfortable to many, that soon after the tragic excesses of the Third Reich. But we were not concerned with notions of racial superiority or inferiority. We were writing about races in man, how they arose and how they changed, as they are changing still.
