I think it's time we quit hiding our heads in the sand about this. I suspect there is a demonstrable correlation between race and intelligence. We've tried pretending it away for years, but all the logical convolutions in the world won't alter the reality.
Notice that Africa, despite being the "cradle of civilization," is still a dust-blown, stone-age hellhole for the most part, and that its inhabitants are largely -- you guessed it -- of a certain race. Much younger civilizations have far outstripped them in terms of intellectual, industrial, and economic progress.
“I suspect there is a demonstrable correlation between race and intelligence.”
The book is likely to prove this to you, well beyond “demonstrable correlation.”
It is a “truth” which very few are comfortable talking about.
To fully understand the book, it helps to be well grounded in statistics, etc.
Another “truth” which very few are comfortable talking about, is the fact blacks in America commit murder at more than seven times the rate of whites. This according to annual reports by the Department of Justice.
(That situation is the case, in the UK as well)
I report, you decide. (book easily obtained from online used book sources, cheap)
