The Biological Case Against Race.
Graves, Joseph L., Jr.
American Outlook, v5 n2 p30-34 Spr 2002
Though modern science considers race a social concept, not a scientific truth, many still believe there are innate racial differences among people. Discusses the development of biology and race theory; basic definitions of race; genes, human variation, and race; genetic variation within and between races; modern genome studies that dismiss biological races; and practical implications of the race fallacy.
