By juxtaposing encounters and theory, this magisterial book explores the semantics of human difference in all its emotional, intellectual, religious, and practical dimensions. The argument developed is subtle, engrossing, and gives the paradigm of 'race' its full use value. Foreign Bodies is a model of analysis and erudition from which historians of science and everyone interested in intercultural relations will greatly profit.RacismHistoryEthnic relationsRaceSocial aspectsOceaniaRace relationsAustraliaRace relationsHistoryRacismHistory.Ethnic relations.RaceSocial aspects.305.800995Douglas BronwenBallard Chris1963-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQUkMaJRUBOOK9910137636303321Foreign bodies2158307UNINA
