"This book is well worth reading. Although written by a seemingly dedicated advocate of Marxist egalitarian morality, it is an encouraging sign that the walls that have kept academic sociolgists and anthropologists mired in ignorance of biological reality are beginning to crumble. Hopefully Kamolnick's book, despite its bias in favor of radical social engineering, will help to close the fissures that currently separate the hard sciences from the social sciences, and allow a greater degree of biological realism to enter the discourse of future generations of social scientists." - The Mankind Quarterly
