A scientific response to the best-selling The Bell Curve which set off a hailstorm of controversy upon its publication in 1994. Much of the public reaction to the book was polemic and failed to analyse the details of the science and validity of the statistical arguments underlying the books conclusion. Here, at last, social scientists and statisticians reply to The Bell Curve and its conclusions about IQ, genetics and social outcomes.
In this first monograph on the White Terror since Ernest Daudet
wrote on the subject in 1878, Daniel Resnick presents the only
documented account of the magnitude of the political reaction of
1815-16 in France. By means of a statistical record of police
arrests and judicial convictions, he demonstrates the nature,
extent, and impact on French political history of the widespread
repression that grew out of the royalist crusade to extirpate any
trace of Napoleonic influences. The calculated policy of
intimidation pursued by the royalists, the author argues,
engendered the political reflexes that were to prove fatal to the
House of Bourbon.
