The Sunday Times best seller.

As heard on BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week.

Racist pseudoscience may be on the rise, but science is no ally to racists. Instead science and history can be powerful allies against bigotry, granting us the clearest view of how people actually are, rather than how we judge them to be. How to Argue with a Racist dismantles outdated notions of race by illuminating what modern genetics can and can't tell us about human difference. It is a vital manifesto for a 21st-century understanding of human evolution and variation and a timely weapon against the misuse of science to justify racism.

Please note: the updated edition includes a new preface from the author.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I was looking forward to reading this book as I struggle to formulate successful arguments when I meet racism. This book has s a great help as it’s full of facts. However, I feel I still need a “how to” guide as in; when a racist says X it is helpful/effective to say X.

I love the way that this book deconstructs the social construct of race and shows how ignorant racists are. Science for the win!

Excellent book, complex concepts are clearly explained and beautifully read. Debunks the very basis of racism and challenges widely held preconceived ideas, providing clever and rational alternative explanations.

Strongly recommended

Thoroughly enjoyed the book highlighting the common myths and misconceptions about race and analysing in depth the questions that many people either believe or have been brought up to believe about racial groups. Adam scientifically disects each belief starting from its origin and takes you through the research and data in an easy to understand way that leaves you to a conclusion that race is not the best measure to categories the human race.

Superb analysis of science and racism
