Listopia > Human Biodiversity

Human genetic variation largely focused on mental traits. I'm an outsider to this field, but I want to know what is must-read here to be able to understand the topic better.

It's now one of the biggest social debates which makes it important to know about. This list is not for the anti-science books that just try dispute points without adding anything to the field.
