Rezensionen
Selected by Choice magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title for 2018
"Zack (philosophy, Univ. of Oregon) has written a book for everyone. Given contemporary (and historical) distress about race, such a book is warmly welcomed, especially a book written by a leader in the field. Zack highlights the salience of race, both historically and presently, in science, politics, law, and so on ... . Philosophy of Race will be the go-to resource for those who want an introduction that provides a solid understanding of race in everyday life." (M. W. Westmoreland, Choice, Vol. 56 (04), December, 2018)
