The new tool also has implications when it comes to the study of the geographical origin of certain populations, such as the Roma Gypsies or European Jews. In fact, Dr. Elhaik believes that GPS may significantly alter our perception of ethnicity. "It is impossible for any of us to tick one box on a form such as White British or African as we are much [more] complex models with our own unique identities," he said. "The notion of race is simply not plausible."
First, the book is written by Wade, not by Murray. Second, this is merely the usual selective inability to understand the problem of categorization.
The epicycles are provided by those that seriously push the notion that broad racial cateories have no informational or predictive value. Designing your own “microrace” will of course provide even more pinpoint-accurate information, but that is besides the point.
“Race” is merely a term for what begins where “family” ends (with some inbreeding on top).
