Description:

"Based on analysis of historical documents from the turn of the century, examines discourse of nation building and scientific racism. Focuses on dialogue among medical professionals, scientists, university faculty, and scholars at state and federal institutions. Explores liberal and racist paradoxes of this debate and its impact on national identity"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
