Summary
Chapters 3 and 4 delve into neuroimaging and how these revolutionary technologies visualize and measure intelligence in the brain, and indicate the neurobiological mechanisms involved. Twin studies of intelligence, for example, combine neuroimaging and DNA analyses. Key results show common genes for brain structure and intelligence.
