Biology -- pt. 2. Society. 330 $aLiving Color is the first book to investigate the social history of skin color from prehistory to the present, showing how our body's most visible trait influences our social interactions in profound and complex ways. In a fascinating and wide-ranging discussion, Nina G. Jablonski begins with the biology and evolution of skin pigmentation, explaining how skin color changed as humans moved around the globe. She explores the relationship between melanin pigment and sunlight, and examines the consequences of rapid migrations, vacations, and other lifestyle choices that can create mismatches between our skin color and our environment.Richly illustrated, this book explains why skin color has come to be a biological trait with great social meaning- a product of evolution perceived by culture. It considers how we form impressions of others, how we create and use stereotypes, how negative stereotypes about dark skin developed and have played out through history-including being a basis for the transatlantic slave trade. Offering examples of how attitudes about skin color differ in the U.S., Brazil, India, and South Africa, Jablonski suggests that a knowledge of the evolution and social importance of skin color can help eliminate color-based discrimination and racism. 606 $aHuman skin color 606 $aHuman skin color$xPhysiological aspects 606 $aHuman skin color$xSocial aspects 606 $aHuman skin color$vCross-cultural studies 610 $abiological traits. 610 $abiology of skin color. 610 $abrazil. 610 $acolor based discrimination. 610 $adark skin. 610 $aevolution and culture. 610 $aglobal history. 610 $ahistory of skin color. 610 $ahuman evolution. 610 $aillustrated. 610 $aindia. 610 $amelanin pigment. 610 $amigrations. 610 $aprehistory. 610 $aracism. 610 $askin color and environment. 610 $askin color. 610 $askin pigmentation. 610 $aslave trade. 610 $asocial differences. 610 $asocial historians. 610 $asocial history. 610 $asocial interactions. 610 $asocial meaning. 610 $asocial sciences. 610 $asouth africa. 610 $astereotypes. 610 $aunited states. 615 0$aHuman skin color. 615 0$aHuman skin color$xPhysiological aspects. 615 0$aHuman skin color$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aHuman skin color 676 $a573.5 700 $aJablonski$b Nina G$0787161 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779253503321 996 $aLiving color$91753605 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03688nam 2200685 450 001 9910787087503321 005 20231206212921.0 010 $a1-315-59465-X 010 $a1-317-09838-2 010 $a1-317-09837-4 010 $a1-4724-2814-5 035 $a(CKB)3710000000225069 035 $a(EBL)1774204 035 $a(OCoLC)889675839 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001334716 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11868226 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001334716 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11271607 035 $a(PQKB)11303858 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1774204 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10957084 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL919200 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5294156 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL674648 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1774204 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5294156 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000225069 100 $a20141028h20142014 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aMedical cultures of the early modern Spanish empire /$fedited by John Slater, Mari?aluz Lo?pez-Terrada, and Jose?
