This collection of papers critiques the impact of political correctness on social anthropology, arguing it has led to incoherence in the field. It challenges the extreme views of sociobiologists, likening their stance to a cult that avoids rational discussion. Featuring both classic and newly written works, the anthology illustrates the disconnect between Darwinism and the social sciences, aiming to dispel contemporary taboos and encourage open debate on these critical issues.
