Review title: Race-o-mania
Product review: While race is certainly an important topic, it should not become the popular be-all and end-all of a general history such as this one. I bought this book and began it with great anticipation, but soon found its author had on blinders. This is typical of a kind of fadism that comes from academics and academic presses. Let's relegate this volume itself to history---the history of a time when academics lost sight of all but academic careerism via the proper politically correct attitudes and postures. By the way, there are many typesetting errors and small errors of fact here and there. One wonders if the author is a journalist or a historian, when he gets on his political kicks.
