Book Synopsis The Rise and Fall of the Caucasian Race by : Bruce Baum
Book excerpt: Originating in 1795, the term 'Caucasian' identifies both the peoples of the Caucasus Mountains region as well as those thought to be 'Caucasian.' This text explores the history of the term and the category of the 'Caucasian race' more broadly in light of the changing politics of racial theory and identity.
