Zusammenfassung: | Terence Keel's Divine Variations: How Christian Thought Became Racial Science attributes the origins of "racial science" to Christian intellectual history.

The concept of "race" is not sufficiently historicized and the treatment of Johann Friedrich Blumenbach needs to be more firmly grounded in the world of eighteenth-century natural history. |
