Human evolution has been recent, copious and regional. Though there is still a large random element, the broad general theme of human history is that each race has developed the institutions appropriate to secure survival in its particular environment.The article summarizes the thrust of Wade's conclusions:
He depicts blacks with roots in sub-Saharan Africa as genetically less adapted to modern life than whites and Asians.Wade suggests what has been true for Darwin's finches is also true for humans living in different environments, evolution marches on and the fittest survive to reproduce.
Wade's thesis is certainly politically incorrect. Accuracy aside, one can reasonably ask if publishing these ideas is like shouting "FIRE" in a crowded theater.
