{"product_id":"9780997705904","title":"Human Stupidity: The Search for Terrestrial Intelligence","description":"This book is a technical explanation of the brain's ability to produce intelligent behavior. By providing the exact methods nature employs to produce thought, the reader can then grasp the notion that intelligence is mostly due to attitude. This is becasue I demonstrate that most humans are born with the required hardware. \u003cp\u003eI also provide the reader with a set of negative human emotional traits which are detrimental to intelligence. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI provide many real world examples of the main driving impetus for all humans as proof for the hypothesis I present here; which is intelligence is the main driver of all human action. I do this by looking back into the recent and beginning history of humanity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt should be obvious that if brain structure is responsible for the production of intelligence then it will be difficult to do studies on something we can't really \"look at\" readily - the brain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI get around that problem by using human actions as proof of the presence or lack of intelligence. A survey of humanity and the wars and social strife of the entire historical record of humans is needed and that is what I provide. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI cover many topics pertinent in today's world such as gun control, freedom of speech and all of our God given rights. Communism is a topic I mention throughout the book becasue it is relevant in displaying the emotional drivers present in all of us at birth. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI also present a suggestion (basically a hypothesis) for how humans can design and build a human level intelligent machine. This explanation will further clarify any ambiguity the reader has about how the brain works as well as providing another real world example of how even scientists in the highest positions in academia can suffer from negative human emotional traits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn order to present an understandable explanation of theses complex subjects I first define exactly what intelligence is as opposed to what most people assume it to be. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI end the book with what I believe is an accurate prediction of humanity's freedom using average intelligence level of all humans as a measuring stick. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI believe the advancement of technology is imperative to the survival of humanity and paradoxically, the freedom of humanity is imperative to the advancement of technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor an inside look at the book, visit the author's website: www.franscur.com\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Franscur","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47019505418480,"sku":"9780997705904","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780997705904_p0.jpg?v=1763942713","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780997705904","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
