Skin Deep

Tackles head-on the debate that has been raging on internet message boards and in academic journals. No longer limited by the fringe, race-based studies of intelligence have been discussed by thinkers such as Sam Harris and Jordan Peterson. If these studies were true, they would provide an intellectual justification for inequality and discrimination. Examining the latest research on how intelligence develops and laying out new discoveries in genetics, paleontology, archaeology, and anthropology to unearth the truth about our shared past, Skip Deep demolishes the pernicious myth that our race is our destiny and instead reveals what really makes us who we are.
