Are we smarter than our grandparents, and if so, what exactly? Is it possible to compare mental abilities among African natives and representatives of Western civilization? What is the imperfection of existing intelligence assessment systems and does the school make us smarter? Richard Nisbett, one of the most outstanding modern social psychologists, answers these and many other questions. Analyzing research materials, statistics of foster families, the results of school experiments, Nisbett refutes the concept of the genetic predetermination of intelligence and shows the role and possibilities of the cultural environment and education
