Title: Liberal Revisionist Lunacy
Review: This book is an entertaining read: buy it for laughs. If you want a realistic treatment of the subject however, buy Victor Davis Hanson's _Carnage and Culture_.Quoth Jared Diamond:"That is, in mental ability New Guineans are probably genetically superior to Westeners..." Really??? And this book won the Pulitzer Prize???Quoth Jared Diamond:"In fact, as I shall explain in a moment, modern Stone Age peoples are on the average probably more intelligent, not less intelligent, than industrialized peoples." Perhaps this statement can qualify him for the Oprah Winfrey Book Club?So, the reason why Africa is such a hopeless morass, and why the Aborigines are still in the Stone Age, and why Arab countries are all suicide-bomb-promoting dictatorships, is because they are much more intelligent than Westerners? Didn't I tell you this book was entertaining?
Is the review positive or negative?
