Review
"Tapper's assertion that sickle cell anemia has been used to determine racial purity and whiteness as well as 'black inferiority' is very convincing and well documented. Based on the book's format and sophistication, it is recommended for all levels, from general readers to professionals in the medical sciences."— Choice"Recommended for all levels, from general readers to professionals in the medical sciences."— Library Journal
