Race, Intelligence and Bias in AcademeThis book documents efforts in American academe and the media to suppress research into the important role played by race and heredity in determining intelligence and other vital human qualities. It presents scientific evidence of the significance of heredity, and details how well-known scholars have been intimidated from speaking the truth. It provides concrete evidence of media distortion and reveals the Marxist orientation of scholars who have persistently attempted to deny the importance of genetic differences in Humankind.

Eysenck: "Science and Racism"; Science and Heredity from Francis Galton and Karl Pearson to World War II); The Legacy of Marx, Mannheim and Lysenko; Scientific Luddites and Neo-Lysenkoists; The Anti-science Views of Gould, Lewontin, Kamin and Marxist Student Organizations; The Persecution of Scholars who Investigate Race Differences - Arthur Jensen of Berkeley, Nobel Laureate and co-inventor of the transistor, William Shockley, Guggenheim Fellow, J. Philippe Rushton, E. O Wilson, R. J. Herrnstein, M. Levin, L. Gottfredson and Seymour Itzkoff; The Bell Curve - Activist Lysenkoism in Academe, the Media and Public Policy; Conclusion - The Influence of Heredity on Human Personality as Confirmed by the findings of the Minnesota Twin and Adoption Research, and the Human Genome Project. |
