What Is Intelligence?: Beyond the Flynn Effect
ISBN: 9780521880077 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Professor James Flynn is one of the most creative and influential psychologists in the field of intelligence. The 'Flynn Effect' refers to the massive increase in IQ test scores over the course of the twentieth century and the term was coined to recognize Professor Flynn's central role in measuring and analyzing these gains. For over twenty years, psychologists have struggled to understand the implications of IQ gains. Do they mean that each generation is more intelligent than the last? Do they suggest how each of us can enhance our own intelligence? Professor Flynn is finally ready to give...

Does Your Family Make You Smarter?: Nature, Nurture, and Human Autonomy
ISBN: 9781107150058 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Does your family make you smarter? James R. Flynn presents an exciting new method for estimating the effects of family on a range of cognitive abilities. Rather than using twin and adoption studies, he analyses IQ tables that have been hidden in manuals over the last 65 years, and shows that family environment can confer a significant advantage or disadvantage to your level of intelligence. Wading into the nature vs. nurture debate, Flynn banishes the pessimistic notion that by the age of seventeen, people's cognitive abilities are solely determined by their genes. He argues that intelligence...

How to Defend Humane Ideals: Substitutes for Objectivity
ISBN: 9780803217959 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. One of the principal moral and psychological problems of our time is whether humane ideals can be defended. Loss of faith in the objectivity of ethics has encouraged a sense of hopelessness. The notion that no ideal is better than any other, that a humane commitment has no rational advantage over Nietzsche's contempt for ordinary people, has been accused of leaving our civilization without self-confidence or a purpose. James R. Flynn rejects attempts to salvage ethical objectivity as futile and counterproductive. Instead, he uses philosophical analysis to demonstrate the relevance of logic...

ISBN: 9780415318440 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Humanism and Ideology focuses on the philosophical problems that confront the humanist who also wishes to be an ideologue, who wishes to claim that certain ideals are worthy of regard by all mankind. The problem of ethical skepticism is of central importance to the book's discussion.
