Description:
The author presents evidence that the major genes controlling the development of human intelligence are on the X-chromosome. As a consequence, males are more variable in verbal-cognitive abilities and in certain special skills, including high-level mathematical, spatial and musical abilities. Not only are there more males who are deficient in these areas, there are also more who have exceptionally high potential. Another implication is that since boys inherit their only gene for these abilities from their mother, the saying "Like father, like son" does not hold true for many highly valued traits.
