Gibt es überhaupt eine allgemein akzeptierte Definition des Intelligenzbegriffs? Was messen eigentlich Intelligenztests, wirklich die Intelligenz? Wie stark ist Intelligenz von Umweltfaktoren und wie stark von erblichen Faktoren abhängig?

Eysenck bezieht in seinem Buch zu all diesen Fragen pointiert Stellung.
