The Measure of Merit
Talents, Intelligence, and Inequality in the French and American Republics, 1750–1940
How have modern democracies squared their commitment to equality with their fear that disparities in talent and intelligence might be natural, persistent, and consequential? This work tells the story of how two nations - America and France - wrestled scientifically with human inequalities and their social and political implications.
