Murray and Herrnstein have never said that intelligence is solely a genetic attribute. With intelligence, there is clearly an interplay between genes and environment. The bone of contention is not the environmental element, but the existence of a genetic component...
...series offers a unique window on the interplay of sophisticated new medicines and patients' agonizing struggles to recover. Though sufferers appear withdrawn and disoriented, they are often painfully aware of themselves.

His strategic and tactical brilliance made possible the U.S.'s rapprochement with China, but his secretive style and disdain for the moralism that undergirds America's sense of mission...
