In this text, Shreeve mainly argued whether the categorization of race is necessary or not.Various fields of specialist divided human beeings into race. Neverthless, the definition of race had not been decided, because it depends on what race is based on. It is very hard to categorise people in terms of biological reality. Therefore, some experts wondered the usefulness of race. However, race is useful for police work and medical research. For example, the police want to know which race a criminal belongs to as a clue to find the person as soon as possible.Moreover, the race is necessary for medical research, because differences between races can show suspectability to disease.
Shreeve said, "all human beings are members of a single biological species, Homo Sapiences." I think race should be created on a basis of this idea. Lastly, Shreeve should write his opinion about definition and usefulness of race clearly.
