Dylan’s Reviews > Outcasts from Evolution: Scientific Attitudes of Racial Inferiority, 1859 - 1900 > Status Update

A common complaint regarding this book is that it is too dense. I think those who make this claim fail to realize how the text is meant to be a compendium of literature reviews, not something that is story driven or exists for entertainment. I read this to learn about the circumstances around which academia informed racism through the 1800's and I thought it was very informative.
