O knihe
Modern scientific data prove that the size and shape of the skull (i.e. morphological features) do not affect human intellectual abilities in any way. But more recently, by the standards of history, in Nazi Germany (and not only!), there were special "sciences", including eugenics, which proved by measuring the skull belonging or not belonging to the "Aryan race. Inside the large races (Negroid, Caucasian, Mongoloid) there are groups with different skull forms (dolichocephalic - long head, brachycephalic - broad head, mesocephalic - middle head). Scientifically proven facts show that brain size and weight are also not reliable criteria for assessing intelligence. Characteristically, the capacity of the brain box of Mousterian fossils - Neanderthals - is no less than that of living people. As for modern races, Mongols, not Europeans, have the largest brain volume and weight, while the average brain weight of the British and Japanese is approximately the same. But inside the same race there is also a big variation of brain size and weight.
