Making Sense of Race
Description :
Race is our age's great taboo. Public intellectuals insist that it does
not exist-that it's a "social construct" and biological
differences between races are trivial or "skin deep." But as
with taboos in other times, our attitude towards race seems
delusional and schizophrenic. Racial differences in sports and culture
are clear to everyone. Race is increasingly a factor in public health,
especially in disease susceptibility and organ donation. And in a
globalized world, ethnic nationalism-and ethnic conflict-are
unavoidable political realities. Race is everywhere . . . and yet it's
nowhere, since the topic has been deemed "out of bounds"
for frank discussion. Cutting through the contradictions,
euphemisms, and misconceptions, Edward Dutton carefully and
systematically refutes the arguments against the concept of
"race," demonstrating that it is as much a proper biological
category as "species."Making Sense of Race takes us on a
journey through the fascinating world of evolved physical and
mental racial differences, presenting us with the most up-to-date
discoveries on the consistent ways in which races differ in significant
traits as a result of being adapted to different ecologies. Intelligence,
personality, genius, religiousness, sex appeal, puberty, menopause,
ethnocentrism, ear-wax, and even the nature of dreams . . . Making
Sense of Race will tell you everything you ever wanted to know
about race, but might have been afraid to ask. --- Edward Dutton is
a prolific researcher and commentator, who has published widely in
the field of evolutionary psychology. He is Editor at Washington
Summit Publishers and Professor of Evolutionary Psychology at
Asbiro University in Lódź, Poland. Dutton is the author of
many books, including J. Philippe Rushton: A Life History Perspective
(2018), Race Differences in Ethnocentrism (2019), and Islam: An
Evolutionary Perspective (2020). ----Praise for Edward Dutton and
Making Sense of Race"Edward Dutton's new book, Making
Sense of Race, is a godsend at a time when the university
curriculum effectively censors human nature from much of the
humanities and social sciences. This information, which comes
wrapped in prodigious layers of data, is presented in a highly
accessible, often funny, style. It should be required reading for all
students of anthropology, sociology, gender studies, and politics.
Those thirsting for knowledge about race-an inescapable and ever
more destabilizing feature of our globalizing world -should dip into
this Jolly Heretic of a book. Whether laughing out loud or marveling
at new facts about human biodiversity, Making Sense of Race is a
riveting read." -Dr. Frank SalterAuthor of On Genetic Interests:
Family, Ethnicity, and Humanity in an Age of Mass
Migration"Edward Dutton is one of the liveliest and most
engaging of this new generation of academic dissidents. . . . [He is]
what Bill Nye the Science Guy would be, if that gentleman dared to
present the human sciences with uninhibited objectivity."-John
Derbyshire
