About this Item

"Mankind in general is a most heterogeneous and variegated mass. Within the one family differences in physique or appearance are often marked; within one race the dark and the fair, the blue and brown eyed, the tall and the short, the straight and the curly haired, the long and broad headed, make up a most bewildering jumble. Whatever plans Nature may have had to erect separate species under the genus homo (self-styled "sapiens"), they must have been scrambled long ago. It is odd to observe, also, that miscegenation is most condemned among the most miscegenated." GR. 7680 Original red cloth boards, lettered (fading) gilt on faded spine, top corners bumped. Minor off-setting endpapers. Pp. viii +(ii) 325 including Preface, Introduction, Index. Seller Inventory # 13951
