About this product
Product Information
When published in 1981, The Mismeasure of Man was immediately hailed as a masterwork, the ringing answer to those who would classify people, rank them according to their supposed genetic gifts and limits. And yet the idea of innate limits - of biology as destiny - dies hard, as witness the attention devoted to The Bell Curve, whose arguments are here so effectively anticipated and thoroughly undermined by Stephen Jay Gould. In this edition Dr. Gould has written a substantial new introduction telling how and why he wrote the book and tracing the subsequent history of the controversy on innateness right through The Bell Curve, Further, he has added five essays, in a separate section at the end, on questions of The Bell Curve in particular and on race, racism, and biological determinism in general. These additions strengthen the claim of this book to be, as Leo J. Kamin of Princeton University has said, "a major contribution toward deflating pseudobiological 'explanations' of our present social woes".

This is an outstanding seller to deal with. Fair prices that are more than reasonable in this economy. The product is even better condition than described, a true value for my money. Packaged and shipped well shows seller has concern for the products he sells to arrive in excellent condition. The seller is friendly and communicates timely with his customers. All in all I highly recommend this seller and would do business again anytime. Thank you and be safe. Good luck to the future.

DVD rare à trouver en France, entièrement conforme à la description et bien sous-titré en français. Vendeur très sérieux, bien que les délais de livraison soient un peu long, mais c'est le prix de l'acheminement des États-Unis vers la France et cela n'est pas du fait du vendeur. Emballage soigné et dvd bien protégé. Très heureux d'avoir pu trouver ce film découvert sur l'esplanade du Centre Juno Beach de Courseulles sur Mer, cet été, en dépit des orages ! Vivement recommandé ! Et au plaisir !
