This book was suggested by Eugene

Pages to read: 264
ISBN: 9780465067978 (Originally listed edition, and Edition I am Using)

While reading the book, consider the below questions:
•What is the raison d’etre of the book? For what purpose did the author write the book?
•What does history provide?
•Why a world view?
•How are cultures formed?
•What are cultures?
•What is race?
•What can politics do for group differences?
•Do cultures change? How and why do cultures change?
•What happens when cultures are discriminated against?
•Does race explain intelligence?
•Why do conflicts between groups arise?
•What role does government play in discrimination?

Your questions are important and will take priority. If you have questions about the book's content or related ideas, either let me know what your questions are or raise them during the discussion.

f you would like to help support this group and help cover the costs of running it, you can donate via Zelle, PayPal, or Venmo. You can send money to eugenefrominquiry@gmail.com. This is not a requirement. Just an option. If you feel that you get a lot out of the events, this allows you to support the group (and me primarily) financially. It will be much appreciated.

(If my official name is need, let me know and I will let you know what it is.)

Summary from Goodreads:
Encompassing more than a decade of research around the globe, this book shows that cultural capital has far more impact than politics, prejudice, or genetics on the social and economic fates of minorities, nations, and civilization.
