WHAT IS IQ? INTELLIGENCE, HEREDITY, AND ENVIRONMENT

,

Is intelligence hereditary? Do intelligence tests measure true intelligence? Can one be intelligent without knowledge? Why do Negroes have a lower IQ than whites? What does environment and upbringing matter for a person’s IQ? These and many other questions are addressed in this book. The author presents the exercises of the most important intelligence tests and sets out the results of the major research that has been done on intelligence. But at the same time he is critical of the various forms of intelligence tests. It explains the precarious basis on which the classification of people according to IQ is based and reveals the dangers of overestimating standardized intelligence. A society whose ideals are ‘cold logic’ and ‘intelligence monsters’, in which the I.E. becomes a symbol of system and social status – this society is in danger of losing its humanity.
