In 'A Notice of the ’Types of Mankind,’' John Bachman critically examines the controversial 1854 book 'Types of Mankind' by Josiah Nott and George Gliddon, as well as their biography of Dr. Samuel George Morton. Bachman challenges their polygenist theories, which posited separate origins for different human races, a concept used to justify racial inequality and slavery in the 19th century. This work serves as a significant historical document, reflecting the intense debates surrounding race and science during a tumultuous period in American history. Bachman’s detailed examination offers insights into the pseudoscientific arguments that fueled racial prejudice and the counter-arguments raised by those who opposed them.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
