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.

Science And The Question Of Human Equality

This book provides an interdisciplinary look at racism and science investigating the biological and social realities of individual and group differences. The contributors examine race and racial distinctions environmental versus genetic contributions to IQ and to cognitive skill level the impact of biocultural interactions on behavior and the problems of achieving an objective appraisal of inter- and intragroup differences in humans. They also consider a possible model for cultural and biological evolution recommending a careful selection of models and methods of approach for sciences concerned with the study of man. The book includes recent findings in the area of race and IQ documents instances of racism and classism and analyzes factors underlying these phenomena. | Science And The Question Of Human Equality

Extreme Intelligence Development Predicaments Implications

Extreme intelligence is strongly correlated with the highest of human achievement but also paradoxically with higher relationship conflict career difficulty mental illness and high-IQ crime. Increased intelligence does not necessarily increase success; it should be considered as a minority special need that requires nurturing. This book explores the social development and predicaments of those who possess extreme intelligence and the consequent personal and professional implications for them. It uniquely integrates insights and knowledge from the research fields of intelligence giftedness genius and expertise with those from depth psychology emphasising the importance of finding ways to talk effectively about extreme intelligence and how it can better be supported and embraced. The author supports her arguments throughout reviewing the academic literature alongside representations of genius in history fiction and the media and draws on her own first-hand research interviews and consulting work with multinational high-IQ adults. This book is essential reading for anyone supporting or working with the highly gifted as well as those researching or interested by the field of intelligence. | Extreme Intelligence Development Predicaments Implications

Living with Extreme Intelligence Developing Essential Communication Skills

In Living with Extreme Intelligence: Developing Essential Communication Skills Dr Sonja Falck provides a unique and practical manual of how to improve interpersonal interactions that involve adults who stand out from the neurotypical majority by having top 2% IQ. Her main message is that understanding the individual differences involved in extreme intelligence and mastering relevant communication skills can break through barriers of frustration underachievement and loneliness to bring about brain-changingly positive conversations and interpersonal effectiveness connection and joy. Dr Falck begins by explaining the neurophysiological and social foundations of why we communicate the way we do and then explains in detail seven essential communication skills. Following this she shows how to put these skills into practice applying insights from depth psychology and demonstrating how to have better conversations in a variety of contexts from general social gatherings to the workplace and intimate relationships. Particular attention is paid to areas that Dr Falck’s research and professional practice have repeatedly shown her are challenging for adults with extreme intelligence such as small talk office politics dating and handling conflict. She draws on case examples from her consulting work (psychotherapy and coaching) with clients who have extreme intelligence and examples from novels cinema the media the literature on giftedness and biographical material on high-profile high-IQ figures like Steve Jobs Elon Musk and Lady Gaga. Throughout she emphasizes the theme from her original model of interpersonal relating which is that experiencing freedom of self-expression with others who offer you a high level of acceptance is what puts you in a state of thriving. The book provides step-by-step guidance for engaging in numerous interpersonal situations such as how to handle difficult conversations how to write effective emails how to breathe listen play take a risk bond repair a broken connection and keep yourself well through changes like failure success and falling in love.

Power Quality Issues Current Harmonics

Power Quality Issues: Current Harmonics provides solutions for the mitigation of power quality problems related to harmonics. Focusing on active power filters (APFs) due to their excellent harmonic and reactive power compensation in two-wire (single phase) three-wire (three-phase without neutral) and four-wire (three-phase with neutral) AC power networks with nonlinear loads the text:Introduces the APF technology describing various APF configurations and offering guidelines for the selection of APFs for specific application considerationsCompares shunt active filter (SHAF) control strategies for extracting three-phase reference currents evaluating their performance under a number of source voltage conditions using a proportional-integral (PI) controllerPresents PI controller-based SHAF instantaneous active and reactive power (p-q) and instantaneous active and reactive current (Id-Iq) control strategies supplying detailed MATLAB®/Simulink simulation resultsProposes SHAF control strategies using type 1 and type 2 fuzzy logic controllers (FLCs) with different fuzzy membership functions (MFs) analyzing their harmonic mitigation and DC link voltage regulationVerifies the proposed type 2 FLC-based SHAF control strategies with trapezoidal triangular and Gaussian fuzzy MFs using RT-LAB a real-time digital simulation software from OPAL-RT TechnologiesPower Quality Issues: Current Harmonics is a useful resource for those tackling electrical power quality challenges. The compensation techniques described in this book alleviate harmonic issues that can distort voltage waveforms fry a building’s wiring trigger nuisance tripping overheat transformer units and cause random end-user equipment failure. | Power Quality Issues Current Harmonics
