Deconstructing the concept of race not only conflicts with people's tendency to classify and build family histories according to common descent but also ignores the work of biologists studying non-human species.

I received a D.Sc. from the University of London in 1992.

A race is what zoologists term a variety or subdivision of a species.

I was born in Bournemouth, England, in 1943.

Each race (or variety) is characterized by a more or less distinct combination of inherited morphological, behavioral, physiological traits.

Deconstructing the concept of race not only conflicts with people's tendency to classify and build family histories according to common descent but also ignores the work of biologists studying non-human species.

The mean pattern of educational and economic achievement within multi-racial countries such as Canada and the United States has increasingly been found to prove valid internationally.
