This book is an edited collection of recently published papers on the sources of average test score gaps when analysed through the lenses of race and ethnicity, socio-economic status, and biogeographic ancestries such as European, African, and East Asian ancestry. It brings together exciting recent findings that rely on powerful DNA-based methods developed in the last few decades. The book also considers the public policy question as to whether, and how, these findings should be disseminated to the general public audience.
