Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 352 pages. Ever since the publication of Race, IQ, and Jensen (1980), Professor James R. Flynn has been the most respected cri tic of the notion that the IQ gap between black and white America ns is genetic in origin. This new book is a must for those who wa nt to be up to date with that debate. He also offers an alternati ve to the vision of American society popularized by The Bell Curv e. His overriding purpose is to rearm American idealism with new ideas. Where have all the Liberals Gone? addresses all those who want something better than a foreign policy that provokes disgust , a domestic politics with neither the vision nor the resources t o promote the common good, and a foolish relativism that reduces all ideals to the lowest common denominator. Professor Flynn anal yzes the black marriage market, the case for affirmative action, the folly of Iraq, and the liberal failure of will. He traces the history of American idealism from Jefferson to the followers of Leo Strauss. The book ends with a powerful defense of humane idea ls and human autonomy. Social scientists, philosophers, and the g eneral public will find this book exciting, unique and the style clear and attractive. Editorial Reviews From Publishers Weekly In this timely critique drenched in classical philosophy, Flynn, renowned intelligence researcher and discoverer of the Flynn Effe ct (which shows that IQ scores rise over generations), inveighs a gainst racial inequality, working-class marginalization and a gro wing propensity for militarism as symptoms that America has gone astray--in discourse and praxis--from its Jeffersonian, egalitari an roots. The author examines the long lineage of American ideali sm, delivering enlightening analysis of Plato and Aristotle's soc ial philosophies. Invoking Eugene Debs and sociologist William Gr aham Sumner, Flynn launches a respectful rebuttal of Herrnstein a nd Murray's The Bell Curve, providing a wealth of statistics sugg esting that environmental factors (the imminent after school expe rience of incarceration as opposed to higher education)--not gene tic differences--account for the IQ gap between blacks and whites ; one fascinating study reveals that the gap disappeared in Germa ny, suggesting a set of particularly pernicious challenges facing blacks in America. While Flynn's number-based approach can be de nse, his contention that blacks are disadvantaged in American soc iety strictly due to group membership is convincing, and his argu ment for a meritocracy with humane-egalitarian principles and a f oreign policy directed primarily toward securing peace in the wor ld is surprisingly pragmatic. (Sept.) Copyright ® Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved . Review Flynn brings moral philosophy to bear on America's poli tical and social malaise. The result is a unique and challenging vision of an American future in which 'justice for all' has a sig nificantly broader and more substantial meaning than it does in p ractice now. William Dickens, Northeastern University and The Br ookings Institution This book is a kind of autobiography in whic h Flynn, one of the most interesting and independent thinkers of his generation, offers his overall view of the United States: its past, its values, its problems, and its best possible future. It contains the latest on the race and IQ debate and a fascinating chapter on Leo Strauss and his followers. Thomas W. Pogge, Colum bia University For decades, Professor Flynn has been among the m ost honorable and distinguished commentators in the world on issu es of race, class, and psychology. His tenacious study of the sci ence of intelligence and the powerful and scrupulous arguments he has produced have undermined many a fallacious theory connecting race and IQ. In Where Have All the Liberals Gone?, Flynn brings his own formidable intelligence to bear on the central problem af flicting American politics and society - the enormous.
