The colour of intelligence

Article Abstract:

The non-mainstream views of Chris Brand, a member of staff in the psychology department of Edinburgh University, have made him the subject of widespread criticism. He has been accused of racism and sexism, and most recently has attracted protests from students about his views on the connections between intelligence and race. He would prefer open debate with his critics, and regrets the fact that he has had little support for his right to express his views.
