American Libertarian, political scientist, author, and columnist, Charles Murray, who was also involved with the cognitive elite of a society, those having higher intelligence levels and thus better prospects for success in life, published what book in 1984?
Cognitive elite The cognitive elite of a society, according to Richard J. Herrnstein and Charles Murray, are those having higher intelligence levels and thus better prospects for success in life. The development of a cognitive elite during the 20th century is presented in their 1994 book "The Bell Curve". In this book, Herrnstein and Murray propose that the cognitive elite has been produced by a more technological society which offers enough high skill jobs for those with a higher intelligence to fill. They also propose that by removing race, gender or class as criteria the main criteria of success in academic and professional life is becoming primarily based on cognitive ability.
