    5.0 out of 5 stars Prof. Carleton Stevens Coon got it right!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2014
    Verified Purchase
    A masterful work of anthropology, a true definition of the physical types that compose the white race and without bias or prejudice undoing the myths of nordicism that relegated alpine, dinaric, slavic and mediterranean white men to a second or third class. This book shows that the white race has a much broader geographic extension and diversity than what is believed, going all the way from Scandinavia, through North Africa, the Middle East and even Central Asia without counting the many descendants it has in North America, Central and South America and the Caribbean countries of Cuba and Puerto Rico because of the more 50,000,000 Europeans that immigrated to the Americas.

    The book was in fine condition, comparable to a copy I first saw in the FSU library in the late 70's. Book will be used for an essay on mimesis.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Let Us Use Scientific Accuracy
    Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2006
    Format: Hardcover
    Mr. Highduke below is misleading in his review. Carleton Coon

    never approached his topics in a less than scientific way.

    Political correctness has not yet entered academia to hide the truth. Mr. Coon merely refined his definitions and did not renounce anything or change his mind in the sense that one is wrong about something. The paragraph in "The Origin of Races"

    reads: "Races like the Nordic, Alpine, Mediterranean, East Baltic,and Dinaric...are neither subspecies nor, in a strict

    sense, local races, although some local races may be defined in these terms. These words have also been used in the sense of types, which can be picked out of local populations. One may find a Spaniard who is typically Nordic in the midst of a population Of Mediterraneans, including his own brothers. In a sense the situation is genetically comparable to finding a man of blood group B whose father's group was A. Types selected in this fashion are interesting to observe, and we notice them every day. Whether or not they reflect the origins of a population in one way or another, we must remember from the taxonomic point of view such types are not races but simply the

    visible expressions of the genetic variability of the intermarrying groups to which they belong."

    This is exactly what "The Races of Europe" demonstrated.

    If the book were a textbook on dog types, no one would care. But people are somehow invulnerable to the laws of heredity. I refuse to be dumbed down for someone else's political agenda.

    Carleton Coon was a professor at Harvard and at the U. of Pennsylvania. He is deceased and cannot defend his works of science, but I am alive and I can and I do.

    3.0 out of 5 stars OK text, poor pictures
    Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2008
    Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase
    I first found and read this book from our local library... it is a masterpiece to anyone interested in anthropology. Although the cost was about $78, I decided that I had to own it and bought a new copy. The new edition I received was certainly new and clean, but the print was not quite of the quality that the library edition had. The B&W photographs/plates of the library edition were high quality, glossy prints; whereas, this new edition has disparagingly mediocre reproductions of them.
