Charles Murray's book The Bell Curve misuses data to conclude that IQ differences between races are genetic.
In that book, Murray completely misuses data to arrive at the, quote, near inescapable conclusion that differences seen between white and black IQ scores is the result of genetics. That book has been championed by the likes of Sam Harris and his ilk, and the unfounded notion of racially causative differences in IQ has taken on a new life these days, when there is no basis in science around that at all.
