En savoir plus sur le livre

Challenging conventional wisdom, this book delves into controversial social science topics deemed "taboo," including race, sex differences, intelligence, and violence. It critiques the prevalence of advocacy-driven research that prioritizes conclusions over inquiry, arguing that biological perspectives are often marginalized in favor of strictly environmental explanations. The author highlights the dangers faced by researchers who incorporate biological factors, including career risks and academic backlash, while addressing the stifling of free intellectual exchange in a politically biased academic environment.
