Summary "Appletons' Popular Science Monthly, March 1900" by Various is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This edition compiles a series of essays and articles exploring various topics in science, natural history, and technological advancements of the time. The publication aims to disseminate knowledge and engaging insights into contemporary scientific thought, contributing to the understanding of nature and society at the dawn of the modern era. At the start of this edition, the article "The Transplantation of a Race" by N. S. Shaler discusses the challenges of acclimatization faced by different human races when relocating to new environments. It delves into historical instances, particularly focusing on the African diaspora in North America, examining how these individuals adapted surprisingly well to the harsh climatic conditions despite their origins in tropical regions. The opening provides a critical look at race, environment, and the socio-economic impacts of slavery, emphasizing the resilience and adaptability of the African American population confronted with radically changed circumstances. Overall, it sets a thought-provoking tone for the subsequent articles that explore various aspects of science and society. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
