“With their 75 years of combined research experience in the field of intelligence, no other pair of authors could have written such an authoritative and comprehensive book. It lucidly covers the theories, methods, and results of intelligence research, from the environment and training to genes and the brain throughout the life course. Clear and engaging, the book doesn’t shy away from controversial issues. Highly recommended.” Robert Plomin, King’s College London, UK “Perennially, there have been too few higher-level textbooks devoted to human intelligence differences. This engagingly voiced book is commendable as clear, current, comprehensive, and cautious.” Ian Deary, University of Edinburgh, UK “A riveting survey of modern research to unlock the nature and biological foundations of human intelligence by pioneers in the field. Aron K. Barbey, University of Illinois ‘The Science of Human Intelligence ... is probably the best book about human intelligence ever written ... The book is very well written, and the critical concepts and findings are nicely illustrated. I predict that it is going to be a standard text for classes on intelligence, and a standard reference for research on intelligence, for many years.” Andreas Demetriou, University of Cyprus “Human intelligence is the major adaptive mechanism for humans. If humans and this planet are to survive, it will be important that we understand and optimize our intellectual capabilities. This book presents our current best understanding of human intelligence and how it should be studied.” Douglas K. Detterman, psychologist,
USA at Urbana-Champaign, USA In this revised and updated edition of Hunt’s classic textbook Human Intelligence, two research experts explain how key scientific studies have revealed exciting information about what intelligence is, where it comes from, why there are individual differences, and what the prospects are for enhancing it. The topics are chosen based on the weight of evidence, so readers can evaluate what ideas and theories the data support. These topics include IQ testing, mental processes, brain imaging, genetics, population differences, sex, aging, and likely prospects for enhancing intelligence based on current scientific evidence. Readers will confront ethical issues raised by research data and learn how scientists pursue answers to basic and socially relevant questions about why intelligence is important in everyday life. Many of the answers will be surprising and stimulate readers to think constructively about their own views.

Aron K. Barbey, University of Illinois ‘The Science of Human Intelligence . is probably the best book about human intelligence ever written . The book is very well written, and the critical concepts and findings are nicely illustrated. I predict that it is going to be a standard text for classes on intelligence, and a standard reference for research on intelligence, for many years.” Andreas Demetriou, University of Cyprus “Human intelligence is the major adaptive mechanism for humans. If humans and this planet are to survive, it will be important that we understand and optimize our intellectual capabilities. This book presents our current best understanding of human intelligence and how it should be studied.” Douglas K. Detterman, psychologist,
USA at Urbana-Champaign, USA In this revised and updated edition of Hunt’s classic textbook Human Intelligence, two research experts explain how key scientific studies have revealed exciting information about what intelligence is, where it comes from, why there are individual differences, and what the prospects are for enhancing it. The topics are chosen based on the weight of evidence, so readers can evaluate what ideas and theories the data support. These topics include IQ testing, mental processes, brain imaging, genetics, population differences, sex, aging, and likely prospects for enhancing intelligence based on current scientific evidence. Readers will confront ethical issues raised by research data and learn how scientists pursue answers to basic and socially relevant questions about why intelligence is important in everyday life. Many of the answers will be surprising and stimulate readers to think constructively about their own views. |
