Geneticists and the Biology of Race Crossing
Provine, William B.
Science, 182, 4114, 790-796, Nov 73
Examines historically the attitudes of United States and British geneticists on the topic of race crossing. Between 1930 and 1950 the attitudes changed from a condemnation of wide race crosses because of deleterious effects to a belief that such inter-racial crosses were at worst biologically harmless.
