Description:

The essays in this unique book argue for the inclusion of race as a social construction in the design of large-scale data collection efforts and how scientists must utilize race in the context of specific research questions. This landmark collection concludes on a prescriptive note, providing an arsenal of multidisciplinary, conceptual, and methodological tools for studying race specifically within the context of health inequalities.

Review Quotes: "an important collection that introduces some of the specific methodological debates on the intersection between race and health inequalities in the USA."-- "Ethnic and Racial Studies"
