FWIW The Bell Curve is equally—if not more—political. the Bell Curve actually spends the most of the last part of the book listing policy proposals which are only loosely based on their “findings”. Mismeasure doesn’t list any policy proposals. But you are wrong about the Bell Curve not being disproven, or at least it has been thoroughly discredited as any sort of scientific literature. It is very bad science to say the least. Some of the main sources used in this book actually used forged data, others seriously mis-interpreted research findings. And if that wasn’t enough, in the 30 years since this book was published, IQ research hasn’t advanced one iota. Their whole premise seems to be a scientific dead end.
