The European and Asiatic Races is a book written by Dadabhai Naoroji in 1866. Naoroji was an Indian scholar and political leader who was one of the first Indians to be elected to the British Parliament. The book is a study of the differences between the European and Asiatic races, and it seeks to understand the reasons for the superiority of the former over the latter.Naoroji begins by examining the physical and mental characteristics of the two races, and he argues that the Europeans are superior in both respects. He then goes on to discuss the historical and cultural factors that have contributed to this superiority, including the influence of religion, education, and political institutions.One of the key themes of the book is the impact of colonialism on the development of the two races. Naoroji argues that the Europeans were able to dominate Asia because of their superior technology and military power, but he also criticizes the way in which they exploited and oppressed the people of Asia.Overall, The European and Asiatic Races is an important work of early Indian political and intellectual history. It reflects the growing awareness among Indian scholars of the need to understand and challenge the racial and cultural assumptions of colonialism, and it remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of colonialism and race relations in the nineteenth century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
