Why, oh lord, why, does every popular science book repeat over and over again the same two concepts, filling well over 200 pages with slightly different wordings of the same thing?

It happens here, too: the (interesting) stuff could have been comfily put in 50/70 pages, making it more readable.

Anyway, it seemed to me a good - although somewhat vague - introduction.

This had some good anecdotes, but also left me too bored to write about it. Whatever.

IQ tests are reliable measures of intellectual ability, but intelligence is only one aspect of the cognitive mind; the other aspect is rationality, which is only weakly correlated with intelligence and is not adequately measured by intelligence tests.
