''Race Differences in Intelligence: An Evolutionary Analysis'' is a 2006 book by controversial race and intelligence writer Richard Lynn reviewing selected literature on IQ testing and arguing for in part genetic racial differences and with a discussion on the causes and consequences. Reviews of the book fault the selection of data used, the methodology, and the conclusions drawn from the data, resulting in criticism that it is "the sort of book that gives IQ testing a bad name." ==Summary== As with Lynn's and Tatu Vanhanen's 2006 book ''IQ and Global Inequality'', the book was published by Washington Summit Publishers.〔(Washington Summit Publishers )〕 It was followed in 2008 by ''The Global Bell Curve''. Lynn's survey is an expansion by nearly four times of the data collected in his 2002 book ''IQ and the Wealth of Nations'' with Tatu Vanhanen, which dealt with the relationship between IQ and economic development. The book claims to represent the largest collection and review of the global Intelligence Quotient (IQ) data, surveying 620 published studies from around the world, with a total of 813,778 tested individuals. Lynn defines races as the genetic clusters or ancestral population groups identified in previous genetic cluster analysis by Luigi Cavalli-Sforza and his colleagues in their 1994 book ''The History and Geography of Human Genes''. Many current ethnic groups would be mixtures of these races. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Race Differences in Intelligence (book)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
