In this 1996 speech<\/a> at the American Renaissance conference, the late psychologist J. Philippe Rushton said: “Christopher Brand<\/a> is a professor of Psychology at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland. He published a book about four months ago called The G Factor. It’s a all about intelligence. It is a watered down version, a gentle version of The Bell Curve, much milder than The Bell Curve. Published by John Wylie & Sons. It was published three months ago and it had sales of about 500 copies and then there was a press conference by Wylie to support Chris Brand’s sale of the book.<\/p>\n

“At the press conference, Chris Brand was asked about the black white [IQ] differences. He said sure, there were differences in IQ points and most people believe it is mainly genetic. The newspaper said, ‘Doesn’t that make you a scientific racist?’ Chris Brand said, ‘If you want to define a scientific racist as someone who believes in black\/white differences being genetic, then I guess I am.’ The next day there were newspaper headlines, ‘I am proud to be a scientific racist.’<\/p>\n

“The Scottish nationalist members of parliament who are trying to split Scotland away from Britain were the first people to denounce Christopher Brand.”<\/p>\n

“Wylie New York decided to recall the book and they overruled Wylie UK. As far as we know, there has never been a scientific book pulled by its publisher after it has been published for a long period of time.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
