Becoming Object: The Sociopolitics of the Samuel George Morton Cranial Collection

A biohistoric investigation of a controversial museum collection. This book considers the vast collection of skulls amassed by Samuel Morton in the 19th century. Craniometric studies undertaken by Morton, as previously noted, advanced scientific racism. Here, Pamela Geller shows that while this characterization is accurate, it is oversimplified.
