The Reality of Race: Contra Biondi
and Rickards.
J.W. Jamieson
The article examines the paper by Biondi and Rickards
entitled "The Scientific Fallacy of the Human
Biological Concept of Race," published in this
issue, and presents evidence supporting the scientific
utility of race as a conceptual scientific tool. He
shows how modern genetic research is validating the
findings of physical anthropologists as to the identification
of racial groups and their varying degrees of kinship.
