Bücher von James R. (University of Otago Flynn

IQ gains are persisting into the twenty-first century, particularly in the developing world: the 'Flynn effect' marches on! This exciting new book by James R. Flynn aims to make sense of the continued rise in IQ scores and considers what this tells us about our intelligence, our minds and society.

An expanded paperback edition of James R. Flynn's thought-provoking examination of dramatic increases in IQ gains over the twentieth century. Includes new essays on the contrast between writing cognitive history with the science of measuring intelligence, the theory of intelligence and Flynn's reservations about Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences.

James R. Flynn's latest book offers a controversial left wing discussion arguing that the gap in IQs between black and white Americans is an environmental rather than genetic factor. A must read for all those who want to keep up to date with the IQ debate.
