Intelligence Race And Genetics Conversations With Arthur R. Jensen

Intelligence Race And Genetics Conversations With Arthur R. Jensen

In a series of provocative conversations with Skeptic magazine Ssenior editor Frank Miele renowned University of California-Berkeley psychologist Arthur R. Jensen details the evolution of his thoughts on the nature of intelligence tracing an intellectual odyssey that leads from the programs of the Great Society to the Bell Curve Wars and beyond. Miele cross-examines Jensen's views on general intelligence (the g factor) racial differences in IQ cultural bias in IQ tests and whether differences in IQ are due primarily to heredity or to remediable factors such as poverty and discrimination. With characteristic frankness Jensen also presents his view of the proper role of scientific facts in establishing public policy such as Affirmative Action. 'Jensenism' the assertion that heredity plays an undeniably greater role than environmental factors in racial (and other) IQ differences has entered the dictionary and also made Jensen a bitterly controversial figure. Nevertheless Intelligence Race and Genetics carefully underscores the dedicated lifetime of scrupulously scientific research that supports Jensen's conclusions. | Intelligence Race And Genetics Conversations With Arthur R.

When Jews Argue Between the University and the Beit Midrash

When Jews Argue Between the University and the Beit Midrash

This book re-thinks the relationship between the world of the traditional Jewish study hall (the Beit Midrash) and the academy: Can these two institutions overcome their vast differences? Should they attempt to do so? If not what could two methods of study seen as diametrically opposed possibly learn from one another? How might they help each other reconceive their interrelationship themselves and the broader study of Jews and Judaism? This book begins with three distinct approaches to these challenges. The chapters then follow the approaches through an interdisciplinary series of pioneering case studies that reassess a range of topics including religion and pluralism in Jewish education; pain sexual consent and ethics in the Talmud; the place of reason and devotion among Jewish thinkers as diverse as Moses Mendelssohn Jacob Taubes Sarah Schenirer Ibn Chiquitilla Yair Ḥayim Bacharach and the Rav Shagar; and Jewish law as a response to the post-Holocaust landscape. The authors are scholars of rabbinics history linguistics philosophy law and education many of whom also have traditional religious training or ordination. The result is a book designed for learned scholars non-specialists and students of varying backgrounds and one that is sure to spark debate in the university the Beit Midrash and far beyond. | When Jews Argue Between the University and the Beit Midrash
