This groundbreaking book by the acclaimed Dorothy Roberts examines how the myth of biological concept of race--revived by purportedly cutting-edge science, race-specific drugs, genetic testing, and DNA databases--continues to undermine a just society and promote inequality in a supposedly "post-racial" era. Named one of the ten best black nonfiction books 2011 by AFRO.com, Fatal Invention offers a timely and "provocative analysis" (Nature) of race, science, and politics by one of the nation's leading legal scholars and social critics.Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Roberts, DorothyPublished: 09/04/2012Publisher: New PressISBN: 9781595588340Pages: 388Weight: 0.98lbsSize: 8.20h x 5.40w x 1.10d
