Description
"For thirty years, James R. Flynn has been the most respected critic of the notion that the IQ gap between black and white Americans is genetic in origin. In this controversial new book, Flynn turns his eye to politics, offering an alternative to the vision of American society popularized by Herrnstein and Murray in The bell curve. Flynn believes that only Social Democracy can realize the Jeffersonian ideal on which America was founded. He rearms American idealism with new ideas - and examines topics ranging from the true state of black America, the case for affirmative action, the folly of the Iraq invasion, to the liberal failure of will. He concludes with a powerful defense of humane ideals and human autonomy"--Jacket.
