This work by Richard Lynn and Tatu Vanhanen explores the hypothesis that IQ levels among different populations significantly impact the economic wealth of nations. The authors suggest that variations in national IQs could be largely attributed to genetic factors, thereby influencing a country's prosperity. By uncovering these connections, the book seeks to shed light on why some countries enjoy wealth while others remain impoverished, opening up discussions on the implications of intelligence distribution on global economics.

“We propose that the IQs of the populations are one of the principal but hitherto unrecognised reasons why some countries are rich and others poor… “…we believe it is likely that the difference in IQs between nations have a substantial genetic basis.” IQ & the Wealth of Nations Richard Lynn & Tatu Vanhanen, Praeger, 2002
