Quote extracted from Savage Minds:
“Zhou and Lee have done a tremendous amount of science and have a clear body of evidence and a compelling analysis of it…the study has taken on a controversial topic and has done a fine job with it. Anthropologists who want to engage the deep theoretical questions about culture, agency, and inequality that come from studying a politically-charged topic like racial inequality in the US would do well to keep this book and its findings on their radar.”
