Paul C. Taylor provides an accessible guide to a well--travelled but still--mysterious area of the contemporary social landscape. The result is the first philosophical introduction to the field of race theory and to a non--biological and situational notion of race. * Provides the first philosophical introduction to the field of race theory. * Outlines the main features and implications of race--thinking; * asks questions such as: What is race--thinking? Don't we know better than to talk about race now? Are there any races? What is it like to have a racial identity? * Engages with the ideas of such important figures as Linda Alcoff, K. Anthony Appiah, W.E.B. Du Bois, Howard Winant, and Naomi Zack. * Explores the enduring significance of race in relation to culture, personal relationships and social justice.
Paul Taylor is Assistant Professor of Philosophy and Adjunct Assistant Professor of American Ethnic Studies at the University of Washington.
