The thesis of Human Diversity is that advances in genetics and
neuroscience are overthrowing an intellectual orthodoxy that has
ruled the social sciences for decades. The core of the orthodoxy
consists of three dogmas: - Gender is a social construct. - Race is
a social construct. - Class is a function of privilege. The problem
is that all three dogmas are half-truths. They have stifled
progress in understanding the rich texture that biology adds to our
understanding of the social, political, and economic worlds we live
in. It is not a story to be feared. "There are no monsters in the
closet," Murray writes, "no dread doors we must fear opening." But
it is a story that needs telling. Human Diversity does so without
sensationalism, drawing on the most authoritative scientific
findings, celebrating both our many differences and our common
humanity.
