QI: The Quest for Intelligence Ref: BV11

Kevin Warwick

Are computers about to become more intelligent than humans? Are some animals more intelligent than we are? Are we born intelligent, or can we become intelligent? For the first time in the history of mankind, we are near to having the biological understanding, the economic ability and the cultural willpower to change the intelligence of future generations. But do we fully understand what intelligence is? Kevin Warwick has conducted a revolutionary investigation into the problems associated with conventional, subjective IQ testing and into the nature of intelligence itself. He presents a new theory in which human, animal and artificial intelligence are united for the first time. The results will astound you. Warwick overturns much current thinking on intelligence, reveals how IQ testing has been misused in the past (including how the US used low IQ scores as a basis for "voluntary" sterilisation), and shows how foods, drinks, television and other factors affect IQ test results.
