Diet And Race: Anthropological Essays is a book written by Francis Paul Armitage and published in 1922. The book is a collection of essays that explore the relationship between diet and race. Armitage, who was a professor of anthropology at the University of California, argues that the diet of a particular race has a significant impact on their physical and mental characteristics.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the relationship between diet and race, and includes essays on the role of diet in the development of physical and mental characteristics. The second part focuses on specific races, including the Eskimo, the African, and the Indian. Armitage examines the diets of these races and how they have influenced their physical and mental characteristics.The third part of the book looks at the impact of diet on modern society. Armitage argues that modern diets, which are high in fat and sugar, are contributing to a decline in physical and mental health. He suggests that a return to traditional diets, such as those of the Eskimo and Indian, could help to improve health and well-being.Overall, Diet And Race: Anthropological Essays is a thought-provoking book that explores the relationship between diet and race. Armitage's arguments are well-supported by research and provide a unique perspective on the impact of diet on human biology and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
