Postulating that a "cognitive elite" are at the top of a new class structure in America, and that low intelligence levels are at the root of many social problems, the authors challenge the fundamental American belief that everyone is created equal. 50,000 first printing. $50,000 ad/promo. Tour.
Reseña del editor: In a book that is certain to ignite an explosive controversy, Herrnstein and Murray dare to reveal their belief that it is intelligence levels, not environmental circumstances, poverty, or lack of education that are at the root of many of our social problems.

The Bell Curve: intelligence and class structure in american life
Anbieter: Library House Internet Sales, Grand Rapids, OH, USA
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. The seminal book about IQ and class that ignited one of the most explosive controversies in decades, now updated with a new Afterword by Charles Murray Breaking new ground and old taboos, Richard J. Herrnstein and Charles Murray tell the story of a society in transformation. At the top, a cognitive elite is forming in which the passkey to the best schools and the best jobs is no longer social background but high intelligence. At the bottom, the common denominator of the underclass is increasingly low intelligence rather than racial or social disadvantage. The Bell Curve describes the state of scientific knowledge about questions that have been on people's minds for years but have been considered too sensitive to talk about openly -- among them, IQ's relationship to crime, unemployment, welfare, child neglect, poverty, and illegitimacy; ethnic differences in intelligence; trends in fertility among women of different levels of intelligence; and what policy can do -- and cannot do -- to compensate for differences in intelligence. Brilliantly argued and meticulously documented, The Bell Curve is the essential first step in coming to grips with the nation's social problems. Piece(s) of the spine missing. Due to age and/or environmental conditions, the pages of this book have darkened. Dampness has seeped into more than just the cover. Binding is moderately loose. Some pages are falling out.

Anbieter: Strand Book Store, ABAA, New York, NY, USA
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Hardcover. Zustand: Good. The authors assert that the kind of class existence in American culture has created a 'cognitive elite' that has had the effect of 'the perpetuation of aclass of people deficient in these endowments and abilities.' Declaiming no progress possible in solving the country's social problems when they're as misperceived as they are today, the authors invite scrutiny and criticismtowards their own perception of the problem as part of the ongoing elitism.
