Publisher's Synopsis
The Races of Men: A Fragment is a book written by Robert Knox and first published in 1850. The book explores the topic of human racial differences and the origins of different races. It is divided into three parts, with the first part discussing the physical characteristics of different races, including their skin color, hair texture, and facial features. The second part delves into the cultural and societal differences between races, including their religions, languages, and customs. The third part explores the historical origins of different races, including theories on the migration patterns of early humans. Throughout the book, Knox presents his own views on race and human differences, which were heavily influenced by the prevailing scientific and social theories of the time.
