A Near Fine book in a Very Good dust jacket. A sociocultural study about interracial marriage in Hawai'i. Authored by Romanzo Adams, Professor Emeritus of Sociology at the University of Hawai'i. Excerpt from front and back flaps of dust jacket: "'In this study of intermarriage in Hawaii,' Dr. Robert E. Park, of the University of Chicago, says in his Introduction, 'we seem to be brought into the very presence of the historical process, where we may observe civilization as it evolves under something like laboratory conditions.' Sociologists know that islands, with their compact populations, offer special advantages for observing human phenomena. Into fertile Hawaii, crossroads of the Pacific, men and women of many lands and races have poured in conflicting waves to merge in an increasingly uniform population which is still developing, the result of racial fusion. Dr. Adams presents here a complete picture of the Hawaiian populace--natives, American and European whites, Chinese, Japanese, Porto [sic] Ricans, Filipinos and mixed-bloods--their cultural backgrounds and marriage tendencies within a community that is unusually friendly towards interracial mating. The book shows the roles of such forces as immigration, religion, divorce and education in the mixed and developing society." Titles of Contents: "Trend of Population," "Present Racial Composition of the Population," "Race Mixture," "The Movements of Immigrants," "Interracial Marriage--The Social Background," "The Hawaiians an Amalgamating Race," "The Role of Mixed-Bloods," "The Haole, the Pake and the Portegee," "The Brides of the Haole Men," "The Marriage of Portuguese," "Chinese Familialism and Interracial Marriage," "The Japanese an Organized Group," "The Filipinos--Christian Orientals," "Some Small Racial Groups," "Practice and Preference in Marriage," "Interracial Marriage and Divorce," "The Character of the Mixed-Bloods," "Cultural Diffusion and Intelligence," "Social Disorganization and Personality," "Race Relations and Communal Morale," "and "Assimilation and Amalgamation Mutually Conditioned.".…
