Rushton and Jensen went on to build on the work of Murray and Herrnstein. Their work has culminated in many peer-reviewed papers in prestigious science journals. Here is one excellent piece... ssc.uwo.ca ...and a successful rebuttal to improper and inaccurate refutations made against their work. ssc.uwo.ca Here is another piece by Rushton that shows the correlation between race, intelligence, and the aggressive and irresponsible behaviors that are associated with crime. charlesdarwinresearch.org A brief story of the nurture v. nature and genetics v. environment arguments are found here... en.wikipedia.org From what I have concluded, those who have argued that genetics and nature play a much more important role in intelligence, have made the best cases for their position.
