I suppose it was like the Danish cartoons, or Salman Rushdie's book = few of the angry actually read and even fewer understood what offended them: <After he authored "The Bell Curve," he was expelled from Academia by all right-thinking liberals. >

I wonder how many have read it. It's a big book. Maybe they skimmed some of the 'dirty parts' like a child with a dictionary looking up rude words. I doubt they did even that. The same as Larry Summers was wrong though I doubt that many who criticize him have much idea at all what he wrote. Test = what were the three reasons given for women doing worse at maths and physics?
