    A professor of biology, writing in 2007, reminds the readers of his blog about facts of population genetics that are often misunderstood.

    A treatment of this same issue in a collection of articles by statistically astute scientists can be found in Intelligence, Genes, and Success: Scientists Respond to The Bell Curve, edited by Devlin, Fienberg, Resnick, and Roeder (1997).
