 | Topic was a good read.
It's immature to deabate about such a sensitive and indepth subject
like this.
If anyone is really interested in understanding topics of this nature I
suggest reading books by Jared Diamond. He presents non-biased,
well-grounded theories as to why societies (and ultimately the
"intelligence" of it's participants) developed as they did today.

| "Guns, Germs and Steel" by Jared Diamond should be compulsory reading. Don't be
put off by the title. I nearly was, but fortunately I bought it and could not
put it down.

Isn't that the same book that gets into the geography - E-W for Europe and
Asia and N-S for Africa? If so, I read it too - quite awhile ago - it was
good.

Agreed, but it does contain some errors (ie, I noted but did not record
some as I read it), and Diamond ignores conflicting evidence. As an
introduction to how to frame the issue, it's worthwhile. As a definitive
treatment of the issue, it's misleading.
