Although his ideas about race are today considered \u201cpseudoscience,\u201d the uncomfortable truth is that he was an internationally respected scientist in his own day. His intellectual world offers a disconcerting example of the pervasiveness of race-thinking in the modern age. <em>Perils of Race-Thinking <\/em>has been described as \u201crich in detail, well documented and an excellent read,\u201d as a thorough rebuttal to the \u201cpopular image of Hrdli\u010dka as a champion of racial equality,\u201d and as offering \u201cnew insights into the theorization of race in the early twentieth century.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Book-related links:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ceupress.com\/book\/perils-race-thinking\">https:\/\/ceupress.com\/book\/perils-race-thinking<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newbooksnetwork.com\/007-series-spotlight-ceu-press-studies-in-the-history-of-medicine\">https:\/\/newbooksnetwork.com\/007-series-spotlight-ceu-press-studies-in-the-history-of-medicine<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":43618,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"class_list":["post-43521","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"featured_img":"https:\/\/mlgfjgj9j0su.i.optimole.com\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/www.unyp.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/UNYP24010_banner_1200x628px.jpg","coauthors":[],"author_meta":{"author_link":"https:\/\/www.unyp.cz\/cs\/author\/kucera-centario\/","display_name":"kucera.centario"},"relative_dates":{"created":"Publikov\u00e1no 2 years p\u0159ed","modified":"Aktualizov\u00e1no 2 years p\u0159ed"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Publikov\u00e1no February 27, 2024","modified":"Aktualizov\u00e1no February 28, 2024"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Publikov\u00e1no February 27, 2024 3:10 PM","modified":"Aktualizov\u00e1no February 28, 2024 12:37 PM"},"featured_img_caption":"","tax_additional":{"post_tag":{"linked":[],"unlinked":[],"slug":"post_tag","name":"Tagy"}},"series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unyp.cz\/cs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/43521","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unyp.cz\/cs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unyp.cz\/cs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.unyp.cz\/cs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/43521\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":43526,"href":"https:\/\/www.unyp.cz\/cs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/43521\/revisions\/43526"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.unyp.cz\/cs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/43618"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unyp.cz\/cs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43521"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.unyp.cz\/cs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43521"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
