Blacks in Science and Medicine stands out as a unique resource, since the accomplishments of Black people have been documented only in various places, but not in a single source that focuses on the scientific disciplines. This is an essential bibliographic tool for anyone who is interested in black Americans in the scientific fields and their backgrounds. This particular book is clean throughout, as a tight binding and shows very few signs of shelfwear. It has the original dust jacket, which is yellowing on the inside, but is otherwise in excellent condition. Ships quickly, very well packed and protected!
