- Racism and biomedical science -- What we know, and why
it matters.
520 "Every arena of science has its own set of ethical issues
-- chemistry and poison gas, physics and the atom bomb --
and genetics has had a troubled history with race. As
Jonathan Marks reveals, this dangerous relationship
rumbles on to this day, still leaving plenty of leeway for
a belief in the basic natural inequality of races. The
eugenic science of the early twentieth century and the
commodified genomic science of today are unified by the
mistaken belief that human races are naturalistic
categories. Yet their boundaries are founded neither in
biology nor genetics and, not being a formal scientific
concept, race is largely not accessible to the scientist.
As Marks argues, race can only be grasped through the
humanities: historically, experientially, politically.
This wise, witty essay explores the persistence and legacy
of scientific racism, which misappropriates the authority
of science and undermines it by converting it into a
social weapon"--|cProvided by publisher.
