The discussion links genetic relationship questions to Jewish history, including proselytism, intermarriage, slavery, and concubinage as channels of non-Jewish influence. The work also frames the topic against the historical shock of the Holocaust and the founding of Israel, arguing that demographic and cultural diversity challenges “single-race” myths.","The Mythof theJewishRace  \nRAPHAEL PATAIandJENNIFER PATAI WING  \nCharles Scribners Sons:New York  \nTo Benjamin and Jessica  \nContents  \nPreface  \n工  \nIntroduction  \n5Racism and Slavery5Racism and Anti-Semitism9Pre-Racist Anti-Semitism11Race As a Genetic Concept14Race and Culture17  \nPART I.HISTORICAL  \nI.Four Views on the Jewish\"Race'21  \n1.Jews Constitute One Single Race  \n21  \n2.Jews Comprise Two Distinct Races25  \n3.Jew Comprise Three Races  \n30  \n4.Jews Are Not a Separate Racial Group31  \nII.An Excursus into Statistics40Introductory Remarks40Benjamin of Tudela42Medieval Spain43England43France44  \nCONTENTS  \nItalyGermanyHungaryBohemia  \nPoland,Lithuania,RussiaSum TotalsConclusion  \nII.Proselytism  \nExtent and EvaluationIn Biblical Times  \nThe Second Commonwealth and HellenismThe Talmudic Period:Palestine and BabyloniaIn Pre-Islamic Arabia and North AfricaUnder IslamThe Khazars  \nEarly Medieval ChristendomSpain and PortugalItalyFranceEnglandSwedenBohemiaGermanyHungaryPolandRussiaConclusion  \nIV.Intermarriage and Interbreeding  \nIntroductory Remarks  \nIn Biblical Times  \nIn the Second Commonwealth  \nIn Talmudic Times  \nUnder Early Christianity  \nIn the Muslim World  \nMedieval Europe  \n44  \n45  \n47  \n47  \n47  \n48  \n49  \n51  \n51  \n54  \n57  \n61  \n62  \n67  \n70  \n73  \n75  \n78  \n79  \n80  \n82  \n83  \n83  \n84  \n87  \n88  \n90  \n91  \n91  \n93  \n97  \n99  \n102  \n103  \n104  \nCONTENTSModern Times114Conclusion116V.Slavery and Concubinage119In Biblical and Talmudic Times119Under Early Christianity123In the Muslim East126In Muslim and Christian Spain130In the Ashkenazi World132Jus Primae Noctis135VI.The Jewish Mind141The Problem of Comparative Intelligence142Jewish General Intelligence145Jews and Genius156Special Talents160Character Traits165Conclusion172PART II.GENETIC  \n# PART II.PSYCHOLOGICAL\n\nVII.Morphological Traits179Height180Hair and Eye Color182Nose183Cephalic Index184Hand Clasping and Arm Folding188Fingerprint Patterns188Conclusions189VII.Looking Jewish191IX.Criteria for the Classification of Races198X.Jewish Inbreeding and Its Effects204XI.The\"Jewish'\"Blood:ABO208XII.The \"Jewish'\"Blood:Other Blood Groups212  \nix  \n218  \nXIII.Serum and Red Cell Proteins  \n218  \nIntroductionHaptoglobin(Hp)  \n219  \n220  \nGroup-Specific Component(Gc)Serum Pseudocholinesterase(PCE)Red Cell Acid Phosphatase(AP)Phosphoglucomutase(PGM₁)Adenosine Deaminase(ADA)Adenylate Kinase(AK)  \n221  \n222  \n222  \n223  \n224  \n224  \nRed Cell Glutamic-Pyruvic Transaminase(GPT)Conclusions  \n225  \nXIV.Glucose-6-Phosphate DehydrogenaseDeficiency  \n227  \nXV.PTC Taste Sensitivity233XVI.Color Blindness235XVII.Genetic Distance Between Jewish andNon-Jewish Groups238  \n242  \nXVIII.\"Jewish'\"Diseases  \n242  \nIntroduction  \nRare Inherited Diseases Unusually Frequent or  \nInfrequent among Ashkenazi Jews  \n244  \nInherited Diseases Found in Oriental and Sephardi Jews250Common Inherited Diseases:Thalassemia253Common Diseases with a Genetic Component253Conclusions258  \nXIX.Conclusions to Part III259Appendix:Diagrams and Tables263Notes309Glossary335Index337Picture Supplementfollowing p.226  \n# Preface \n\nP  \nRIOR TO THE present volume only one book was available in Englishon the question of the Jewish \"race”:Dr.Maurice Fishberg's TheJews:A Study in Race and Environment,which was published jointly in1911 by Charles Scribner's Sons of New York and the Walter Scott Publish-ing Company of London.¹In the sixty-three years that have elapsed since,the physical anthropology of the Jews has been the subject of numerousstudies reported in journal articles.More importantly,methods and ap-proaches of the new science of genetics,developed since World War I,havebeen applied to the Jews,and a considerable number of surveys,comparingJewish and non-Jewish groups with respect to various serological and othergenetic features,have been carried out and reported in scholarly literature.These developments have brought about a new understanding of the geneticrelationship between the Jews and their non-Jewish neighbors.","cbCaisviYhvgUqg2","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisviYhvgUqg2","pdf",7037555,1,372,"English","en",105,"# Preface\n# Introduction\n## Racism and Slavery\n## Racism and Anti-Semitism\n## Pre-Racist Anti-Semitism\n## Race as a Genetic Concept\n## Race and Culture\n# Part I.
