Does your Family Make You Smarter?: Nature, Nurture, and Human Autonomy

The book "Does Your Family Make You Smarter?" by James R.

Flynn is a groundbreaking exploration of the relationship between family environment and cognitive abilities.

Drawing on 65 years of hidden IQ tables, Flynn presents a revolutionary new method for estimating the effects of family on intelligence.

He banishes the pessimistic notion that by age 17, people's cognitive abilities are solely determined by their genes and argues that intelligence is also influenced by human autonomy.

This comprehensive analysis offers a feast for the mind, reconciling Flynn's earlier research on intergenerational trends with his new understanding of individual differences.

With endorsements from renowned scholars like Thomas J.

Bouchard, Jr., and Gale H.

Roid, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the complex relationship between family and intelligence.
