1.0

If you think this is a good book, read the [b:The Tyranny of Metrics|36644895|The Tyranny of Metrics|Jerry Z. Muller|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1511400900l/36644895._SY75_.jpg|58414707] next. The question of whether this book is racist or not is how well you understand measurement and what influences it.

Anyone with a lick of scientific background and understands how samples and data can be polluted by influence won't have much use for this book except to understand how racists twist facts and figures to suit their views instead of changing their views based on data.
