John W. Robbins. Thomas Sowell, a prolific economist and senior fellow at the Hoover Institution in California, has written an important and heretical book on the relationship between race and culture–heretical, that is, as judged by the prevailing dogmas of social science. Sowell states the obvious, which apparently is not at all obvious to many social scientists: there are significant differences among cultures; some cultures are in fact superior to other cultures; and they are superior. Thomas Sowell's views on race and culture must command the respect of any informed, unbiased person. In Race and Culture: A World View, they are stated with the clarity and objectivity that mark all of his writing. His scope is truly amazing, encompassing the whole world and the history of the world from the begginings of civilization to the present. Race is used in the broad social sense in which it is applied in everyday life to designate ethnic groups of various sorts—by race, religion, or nationality. Culture refers to those aspects of culture which provide the material requirements for life itself—the specific skills, general work habits, saving propensities, and attitudes toward education and entrepreneurship (also known as “human capital”).
