In an age of identity politics, DNA ancestry testing and the rise of the far-right, a belief in biological differences between populations is experiencing a resurgence. The truth is: race is a social construct. Our problem is we find this hard to believe.             In Superior, award-winning author Angela Saini investigates the concept of race, from its origins to the present day. Engaging with geneticists, anthropologists, historians and social scientists from across the globe, Superior is a rigorous, much needed examination of the insidious and destructive nature of the belief that race is real, and that some groups of people are superior to others.;  352 pages; Published: 25\/06\/2020\u003cdiv class=\"goodreadr\" data-isbn=\"9780008293864\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56456989245822,"sku":"9780008293864","price":19.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0913\/1298\/0350\/files\/9780008293864.jpg?v=1761330268","url":"https:\/\/it-book.co.uk\/products\/9780008293864","provider":"IT-Book","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
