					<description><![CDATA[Many people assume human brains vary genetically and genetic variation maps to races. But the races are not real and genetic variation can&#8217;t explain brain differences. Because, dear reader, brains don&#8217;t work that way. Let&#8217;s look just at the brain part of this problem.
