IQ, and Mental Testing More Generally

I think these have been dead ends, of almost no scientific value. Having written about this at inordinate length, I won't repeat myself here.

Hans J. Eysenck
Arthur Jensen
Richard Herrnstein [Herrnstein is however almost unique among modern advocates of IQ in the public sphere in having done value science, namely his experimental work on learning in animals, and especially the "matching law". This has, of course, no material or even methodological bearing on his writings about IQ.]
Charles Murray
J. Philippe Rushton

Stephen Jay Gould, The Mismeasure of Man [I do not recommend this for the simple reason that I read it in 1988, when I was fourteen. I remember it as a very good book, for whatever that's worth.]
