Dysgenics: Genetic Deterioration in Modern Populations

Richard Lynn's Dysgenics was published in 1996 and has been out of print for a number of years. To meet continuing demand, this Second Revised Edition updates the first edition and contains two new chapters; one on the decline of the world's IQ, and the other on the dysgenics of immigration. The term Dysgenics means the deterioration of the genetic quality of the population. It is the opposite of Eugenics, which was coined by Sir Francis Galton in 1883 to mean the improvement of the genetic quality of the population. Galton argued in his Hereditary Genius (1869) that deterioration of the genetic quality of the population was taking place for health, intelligence and moral character. Richard Lynn shows that this was correct and is still present world wide.

Race and Sport: Evolution and Racial Differences in Sporting Ability

Edward Dutton

New Edition Now Available!
Investigating Earth Science is a lab manual designed to meet the requirements of an introductory geology course for non-science majors. In order to meet the needs of a broad based geology course many topics are covered including the scientific method, mineral and rock formation and identification, water issues, coordinate systems and mapping, geologic time, the atmosphere, weather and climate, and astronomy.
This lab manual is designed to compliment the lecture component of an introductory geology lecture course to reinforce and enhance student’s understanding of Earth processes, human interaction with our environment and the place of the Earth and humans in our solar system and universe. The major goal of this lab manual is to help students understand the importance of how science works, how scientists think and how science impacts the student’s life on a daily basis.

Richard Lynn, one of the leading researchers on intelligence and personality and the author of several major books on IQ and personality research, summarizes in this landmark work what one scholar has described as “the definitive study of race differences in intelligence.” Since 1977, Richard Lynn has blazed a pioneering trail of research on racial differences in IQ. In previous books and scientific articles, Lynn has explored dysgenic trends in intelligence, sex differences in IQ, psychopathic personality traits, and the dimensions of personality and national character. In this book, Lynn analyzes the results of over 500 published studies that span ten population groups—races and sub-races worldwide—in what is certain to be a path-breaking book for IQ experts and educated laypersons alike. This comprehensive review of worldwide racial differences of general intelligence explores the formation of races, meaning of intelligence, validity of race differences in IQ, environmental and genetic correlates of intelligence, the relationship between brain size and intelligence, the evolution of racial differences in intelligence, and the factor of racial hybrids. In a relentlessly methodical approach, Lynn expands upon an extensive array of research findings from the biomedical and social sciences, including the latest studies from the fields of behavior genetics, evolutionary psychology, and anthropology in reaching his thought-provoking conclusions. Extensively referenced, this exhaustive study of race and IQ is a milestone accomplishment and should serve as the yardstick by which future research is measured. The IQs of the races…can be explained as having arisen from the different environments in which they evolved, and in particular from the ice ages in the northern hemisphere exerting selection pressures for greater intelligence for survival during cold winters; and in addition from the appearance of mutations for higher intelligence appearing in the races with the larger populations and under the greatest cold stress. The IQ differences between the races explain the differences in achievement in making the Neolithic transition from hunter-gathering to settled agriculture, the building of early civilizations, and the development of mature civilizations during the last two thousand years. The position of environmentalists that over the course of some 100,000 years peoples separated by geographical barriers in different parts of the world evolved into ten different races with pronounced genetic differences in morphology, blood groups, and the incidence of genetic diseases, and yet have identical genotypes for intelligence, is so improbable that those who advance it must either be totally ignorant of the basic principles of evolutionary biology or else have a political agenda to deny the importance of race. Or both. From Race Differences in Intelligence An Evolutionary Analysis Richard Lynn

The Global Bell Curve: Race, IQ, and Inequality Worldwide

Richard Lynn s new book shows that in many multi-racial countries, people of Jewish and East Asian ancestry average highest in IQ and socio-economic position, Whites next highest, South Asians and Hispanics next highest, and people of African descent consistently average at lower levels. Lynn argues that the average population group differences in socio-economic position (education levels, earnings, welfare dependency) are due to their average differences in intelligence. Since these differences also translate into fertility patterns, with the lowest IQ populations having more children, the specter of a dysgenic future is raised. Altogether the issues are discussed separately across 13 countries or areas of the world: the United States, Africa, Australia, Brazil, Britain, Canada, the Caribbean, Hawaii, Latin America, the Netherlands, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia.
