Chapter 7 was basically "here are just some of the ways scientists have been horrifically racist. And not even that long ago, either."

"Boyle had borrowed a diamond and had taken it to bed with him. Unfortunately, history does not record why the distinguished British physicist felt the urge to sleep with a loaned gem. Nevertheless, science should be grateful. Boyle found that when he rested the jewel "upon a warm part of my naked body" it gave off a glow. (The mind boggles at what he was doing.)" 😂😭
