REVIEWS
"Analyzing conceptions and descriptions of race, Zack offers an intriguing exploration of the possibilities of mixed-race identity in society."
—Publishers Weekly
"Attacking such common racial notions as the idea that 'black plus white always results in black,' Zack deftly shows the flimsiness of our thinking about race."
—The Philadelphia Inquirer
"Race and Mixed Race is a very thought-provoking essay on an extremely important topic. It is fascinating reading which contains many, many gems."
—Laurence Thomas, Syracuse University, author of Vessels of Evil: American Slavery and the Holocaust
