Abstract
THIS book, the result of a happy collaboration, comes as an opportune prophylactic against the spreading virus of racialism. Its nine chapters contain a historical survey of the development of anthropology and racial ideas, a simple but sufficient account of human genetics, an examination of the bases and follies of ethnic classification, a review of European ethnic groups considered broadly and nationally, a careful demographic summary of European emigration and a recapitulation of the practical applications of the inquiry.
