Reviews
It is quite a feat to pull off a densely informative book about a horrible subject that also manages to be charismatic and funny . . . highly readable.The Guardian
Persuasive and precise . . . The Science of Racism is a book that shouldn't have to exist, but I am glad it does . . . The fight is real, and this book is a weapon.Adam Rutherford, The Spectator
Illuminating, surprising, unnerving, moving . . . and, sadly, utterly necessary for this time in history.Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireland
This isn’t like any other book you’ve read about racism. It is feverishly devoted to data, painting an unarguable picture of the extent and scope of racism in our society. Read this book and you’ll win every debate you’ll ever have with anyone who doubts the existence of racism.Natasha Devon
