Although Cambridge University Press publishes some racialist pseudoscience, this does not completely invalidate their positive reputation. They normally publish legitimate scientific and academic works, and the publication of pseudoscience is generally an inverse stopped clock moment. One can reasonably expect any such large publishing operation to fail occasionally.
