Unravel the complex themes of race and science in 'Is Science Racist?', a compelling exploration by Jonathan Marks. This insightful book delves into the historical and scientific underpinnings of race, questioning age-old assumptions about human inequality. Drafted with precision, Marks connects the past eugenics movement to contemporary genomic science, unveiling how the fallacies surrounding race persist in today’s society. With a scholarly yet engaging tone, this essay exposes the misconceptions that race is a natural category defined by biology. Instead, he posits that understanding race demands a multidisciplinary approach, integrating insights from the humanities, history, and politics. Perfect for students, educators, and anyone interested in the intersections of science, race, and society, 'Is Science Racist?' promises to challenge your perspective and provoke critical thought. Dive into this enlightening read and discover why the dialogue around race in science is as relevant now as ever. Available in brand new condition, this edition, published by John Wiley & Sons in 2017, consists of 140 pages rich in analysis and thought-provoking discourse. Note: Shipping for this item is free.

Description:
Every arena of science has its own flash-point 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 in 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.

Very soft and the matching backing is nice
The blanket is great quality with no smells. It’s thick and cozy. We like the matching backing.
Unfortunately, I should have measured because this barely covers a queen bed despite the heading product description “queen size”. I still haven’t heard back whether they use harsh chemicals when processing.
Overall, it feels great to support companies that use natural products with (hopefully) low to no harmful chemicals.

Great article
An excellent article. I use it on my furry cover and it works great. My cover looks fluffy and soft.

Great for blankets
Great for making sherpa or fur blankets soft again after wash. I imagine it'll work well for fur hoods as well. It did a good job of removing lose hair fibers and the quality is good, even if it's extra spikey. Overall, affordable solution and good looking brush to rejuvenate faux fur

Great but Pain
It’s alright, does the job as it is supposed to. It’s easy to use and helped fix my Uniqlo jacket that was all matted. It didn't restore it to it's original form however it did unmat it. If I bought this way before and touched up the jacket, I think it would of been perfect to this day still. Maintenance of those jackets are a must! The brush is strong and works well for fluffing it up because of the metal wiring. The only bad parts are that it can hurt if you accidentally poke or scratch yourself, I actually got cut by it when I quickly was brushing. It’s kind of hard to get the lint off the brush but it's better than others and might hurt because of the metal. But overall, it’s a cool tool that makes my jacket fluff again!

Works well, however…
Purchased this to give life back to my Sherpa backed blankets. This is a well made brush handle is comfortable. The teeth are strong and durable. They did not bend around while I used it and maintained its shape. The problem I guess I’m seeing is that it doesn’t get deep down into the fabric to it’s just a surface “petting”. Maybe if the teeth were further apart or something. But does seem to provide some form of fluff.
