""Prodromus: Towards A Philosophical Inquiry Into The Intellectual Powers Of The Negro"" is a book written by Edward Binns in 1844. The book is a philosophical inquiry into the intellectual abilities of people of African descent, commonly referred to as Negroes at the time. Binns argues that the common belief that Negroes are intellectually inferior to white people is unfounded and based on prejudice rather than empirical evidence. He explores the history of the African continent, the achievements of African civilizations, and the intellectual capacities of individual Africans. Binns also examines the impact of slavery on the intellectual development of Negroes, arguing that the dehumanizing effects of slavery have contributed to the perception of Negroes as intellectually inferior. He calls for a more objective and scientific approach to the study of race and intelligence, and for the recognition of the intellectual potential of Negroes. Overall, ""Prodromus"" is a pioneering work in the field of African philosophy and a significant contribution to the ongoing debate about race and intelligence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
