توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب :
در نژاد در آمریکای شمالی، آدری اسمدلی نشان میدهد که "نژاد" یک اختراع فرهنگی است که از قرن هجدهم بهطور متفاوت و فرصتطلبانه استفاده شده است. نژاد، در اصل خود، محصول علم نبود، بلکه یک ایدئولوژی عامیانه بود که شکل جدیدی از طبقه بندی اجتماعی و منطقی سازی نابرابری در میان مردم آمریکای شمالی را منعکس می کرد.
برایان اسمدلی، نویسنده جدید، به آدری اسمدلی می پیوندد. در به روز رسانی این متن معروف و راهگشا. نسخه چهارم شامل یک فصل جدید متقاعد کننده در مورد تأثیرات سلامتی جهان بینی نژادی، و همچنین یک فصل کاملاً بازنویسی شده است که انتخاب باراک اوباما و نقش در حال تکامل نژاد در تاریخ سیاسی آمریکا را بررسی می کند. این نسخه همچنین یافته های اخیر در مورد ژنوم انسان و مفاهیم ژنومیک را در بر می گیرد. نویسندگان با تکیه بر درک جدید از بیان DNA، مواضع دانشمندان نژاد معاصر را که معتقدند نژاد یک مفهوم بیولوژیکی معتبر است، موشکافی می کنند.

توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب به زبان اصلی :
In Race in North America, Audrey Smedley shows that “race” is a cultural invention that has been used variously and opportunistically since the eighteenth century. Race, in its origin, was not a product of science but of a folk ideology reflecting a new form of social stratification and a rationalization for inequality among the peoples of North America.
New coauthor Brian Smedley joins Audrey Smedley in updating this renowned and groundbreaking text. The fourth edition includes a compelling new chapter on the health impacts of the racial worldview, as well as a thoroughly rewritten chapter that explores the election of Barack Obama and the evolving role of race in American political history. This edition also incorporates recent findings on the human genome and the implications of genomics. Drawing on new understandings of DNA expression, the authors scrutinize the positions of contemporary race scientists who maintain that race is a valid biological concept.
