Genes, Brains, and Politics: Self-Selection and Social LifeBloomsbury Academic, 21 juni 1993 - 208 sidor White moves from a simple proposition maintaining that all individuals seek suitable surroundings to propose a provocative approach to social and political action.

Interactional in that both heredity and environment are credited for due influence on individuals' traits; mentalist in that individuals' actions can be purposeful rather than simply determined; and populational in his insistence that the unique persona must not be slighted in the rush to fashion statistics. |
