The IQ Quantitative Trait Loci Project: A Critique.
King, David
Race, Gender & Class, v5 n3 p41-50 1998
Describes the IQ Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) project, an attempt to identify genes underlying IQ score variations using maps from the Human Genome Project. The essay argues against funding the IQ QTL project because it will end the debates about the genetic basis of intelligence and may lead directly to eugenic programs of genetic testing. (SLD)
