SynopsisThis study challenges many theories that have emerged to explain giftedness. Storfer integrates findings of recent studies - research on identical twins, IQ correlations between parents and children and examination of the effects of family structure and economic background on intelligence. He also links environment, culture and biology to intellectual development. Expanding on these findings, Storfer offers a plausible argument for the cooperation between heredity and environment in the phenomenal rise in average IQ.
