Reviews
Advance praise: 'Richard J. Haier invites us to a compelling journey across a century of highs and lows of intelligence research, settling old debates and fueling interesting questions for new generations to solve. From cognitive enhancement to models predicting IQ based on brain scans, the quest to define the neurobiological basis of human intelligence has never been more exciting.' Emiliano Santarnecchi, Harvard Medical School, Advance praise: 'The biology of few psychological differences is as well understood as that of intelligence. Richard J. Haier pioneered the field of intelligence neuroscience and he is still at its forefront. This book summarizes the impressive state the field has reached, and foreshadows what it might become.' Lars Penke, Georg-August-Universitt, Gttingen, Germany, Advance praise: 'Richard J. Haier's The Neuroscience of Intelligence is an excellent summary of the major progress made in the fields of psychology, genetics and cognitive neuroscience, expanding upon the groundbreaking work of 'The Bell Curve.' He addresses the many misconceptions and myths that surround this important human capacity with a clear summary of the vast body of research now extending into the human brain and genome.' Rex E. Jung, University of New Mexico, Advance praise: 'This book was overdue: a highly readable and inspiring account of cutting-edge research in neuroscience of human intelligence. Penned by Richard J. Haier, the eminent founder of this research field, the book is an excellent introduction for beginners and a valuable source of information for experts.' Aljoscha Neubauer, University of Graz, Austria, Advance Praise: 'Forty years of Haier's research and thinking about the neuroscience of intelligence have been condensed into this captivating book. He consistently gets it right, even with tricky issues like genetics. It is an intelligent and honest book.' Robert Plomin, King's College London, Advance praise: 'It increasingly appears that we are within years, not decades, of understanding intelligence at a molecular level - a scientific advance that will change the world. Richard J. Haier's The Neuroscience of Intelligence gives us an overview of the state of knowledge that covers not only his own field, the brain, but also recent developments in genetics, and he does so engagingly and accessibly for the non-specialist. I highly recommend it.' Charles Murray, American Enterprise Institute

Table Of Content
1. What we know about intelligence from the weight of studies; 2. Nature more than nurture: the impact of genetics on intelligence; 3. Peeking inside the living brain: neuroimaging is a game changer for intelligence research; 4. Fifty shades of gray matter: a brain image of intelligence is worth a thousand words; 5. The holy grail: can neuroscience boost intelligence?; 6. As neuroscience advances, what's next for intelligence research?
Synopsis
This book introduces new and provocative neuroscience research that advances our understanding of intelligence and the brain. Compelling evidence shows that genetics plays a more important role than environment as intelligence develops from childhood, and that intelligence test scores correspond strongly to specific features of the brain assessed with neuroimaging. In understandable language, Richard J. Haier explains cutting-edge techniques based on genetics, DNA, and imaging of brain connectivity and function. He dispels common misconceptions, such as the belief that IQ tests are biased or meaningless, and debunks simple interventions alleged to increase intelligence. Readers will learn about the real possibility of dramatically enhancing intelligence based on neuroscience findings and the positive implications this could have for education and social policy. The text also explores potential controversies surrounding neuro-poverty, neuro-socioeconomic status, and the morality of enhancing intelligence for everyone. Online resources, including additional visuals, animations, questions and links, reinforce the material., Why are some people smarter than others? This book clearly explains what neuroscience tells us about intelligence and the brain, emphasizing genetic and neuroimaging research. It dispels common misconceptions and shows how neuroscientific methods could dramatically enhance intelligence, with surprising implications for education and social policy.
