Retreat of Scientific Racism: Changing Concepts of Race in Britain and the United States Between the World Wars Paperback - 1993
by Elazar Barkan
First line
The modern meaning of race originated in eighteenth-century zoology, and was later applied to humans by Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, who formulated a terminology of physical anthropology and classified humankind into the now all-too-familiar color categories: black, brown, yellow, red and white.
From the rear cover
This fascinating study in the sociology of knowledge documents the refutation of scientific foundations for racism in Britain and the United States between the two world wars, when racial differences were no longer attributed to biological but to cultural factors.
