Sample Book Insights:
#1 The Broward County, Florida, school system began testing all second graders in 2005. As a result, the number of gifted African American children in the district skyrocketed 80 percent, and that of gifted Hispanic children skyrocketed 130 percent.
#2 The widespread belief that IQ limits are innate and permanent affects the lives of people like Edgar, who are often limited by their IQs.
#3 Intelligence is necessary for material and social success, and it is central to our idea of success. However, when asked to define intelligence, scholars struggle to do so. It is an emergent property of mental functioning.
#4 The idea that Africa has the lowest average IQ score is based on a flawed concept of comparative IQ scores. In reality, any comparison of individuals of wildly different backgrounds will result in a flawed measurement of intelligence.
