Book synopsis

Rob DeSalle and Ian Tattersall explain how science has been misused to sustain the belief in the biological basis of racial classification. Troublesome Science draws on the tools of taxonomy to show that while the diversity that exists within our species is a real phenomenon, it nevertheless defeats any systematic attempt to recognize discrete units within it.
