Darwin's discoveries and the growth of mass education in the 19th
Century set the stage for a quest to measure and assess human
intelligence. But that quest has often seemed quixotic: marred by
poor or non-existent science, skewed by commercial and political
agendas, and marred, time and again, in Donald's view, by
essentialism.
From eugenicist Sir Francis Galton to Daniel Goleman, who
popularized emotional intelligence testing, this episode covers the
theorists who cast a statistical and sytematizing eye on human
differences.
