I'm kind of intrigued, but he wrote The Bell Curve and some people really hate him for that book and think he is a total quack. I don't really want to waste my time on it if it is a pointless read...
I have read Murray's "The Bell Curve" and "Real Education" and recommend them, and plan to read "Coming Apart".
A summary of Murray's work from someone who does not share his political views is

Bell Curve issues have been debated regularly on this forum, for example in the thread "Gifted or Not"
