Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history of intelligence testing and the debate surrounding who qualifies as 'feeble-minded'. The author presents evidence that challenges the widely accepted view that anyone scoring below a certain threshold on intelligence tests is necessarily incapable of functioning in society. Drawing on case studies and statistical analysis, the author argues that existing tests fail to account for important temperamental qualities that are crucial for social success. The book introduces a new test that measures these qualities, demonstrating its ability to identify individuals who may not meet traditional intelligence benchmarks but who possess the skills and abilities to live independently. The author's work has the potential to revolutionize the way we think about intelligence and its impact on our lives.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Delving into the intricate relationship between intelligence and social behavior, this book presents a groundbreaking method for diagnosing mental deficiencies and various forms of social inadequacy. The authors, drawing upon cutting-edge research in neurology and psychology, argue that brain capacity serves as a valuable indicator of mental development and function. By measuring head size and applying advanced statistical analysis, the authors establish norms for brain capacity at different ages, providing a benchmark against which individuals can be assessed. Furthermore, the book explores the physical, psychological, and educational factors that contribute to social maladjustment, emphasizing the crucial role of early identification and intervention. Ultimately, this work challenges the traditional reliance on IQ testing and offers a more comprehensive approach to understanding and addressing the challenges of mental health and social well-being.

Condition: New.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This fascinating anthropological study pioneered by the author analyzes the relationship between brain capacity and intelligence. It is based on extensive data gathered from both normal and developmentally challenged individuals, with the research carried out using precise anthropometric methods to measure head dimensions. The author developed a novel instrument to accurately measure head height, a crucial factor in calculating brain capacity. The calculated brain capacities were then compared with the actual brain capacities of individuals whose brains were removed from the skull after death. The resulting insights have significantly contributed to our understanding of the physical and psychological aspects of intelligence, providing valuable knowledge for fields such as developmental psychology, neuroscience, and education, and opening up new avenues for future research.
