Yesterday, I had a friendly discussion with one of my friends who studies evolutionary biology, discussion was around human intelligence. In just the first few minutes, I started realizing my ignorance on this topic.

He suggested many books, and one of them was 'The Bell Curve.' So far, I have only read the first few chapters, and it has already changed my entire understanding of human intelligence.

Fascinating topic, especially when considering the implications. I also highly recommend his interview with philosopher Stefan Molyneux.

Thanks for the recommendation. I will definitely check it out. This book is often misunderstood and taken out of context by people with less-than-good intentions. I hate when this happens to science because it can stagnate research in that particular area.

That's right, and it's unfortunate, but no less fascinating topic.
