Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines concepts of race and intelligence, arguing that generalizations about racial apt**tude based on societal achievement are unreliable and that stereotypes about primitive races being less developed physically and mentally are often unsupported by evidence. The author points out that theories about the superiority of different races or the inferiority of primitive races are not supported by science and that environmental and historical factors play a larger role in determining societal progress than racial makeup. Analyzing the history of different civilizations, the author argues that the development of human types is a complex and multifaceted process, influenced by a multitude of factors that cannot be reduced to simple notions of racial superiority or inferiority. The book concludes that the concept of race is a social construct, not a biological reality, and that generalizations about the intellectual or physical inferiority of primitive races are not only inaccurate but also perpetuate harmful stereotypes.
