The Intelligence Man a story of scientific fraud by STEPHEN DAVIS starring John Shrapnel
Sir Cyril Burt died in 1971, the most eminent psychologist of his age, his name forever linked with the IQ test and the 11+ examination system. Within two years a bitter scientific controversy saw Burt accused of lifelong faking and manipulation of phoney scientific data. How and why was Burt allowed to get away with this? The Intelligence Man tells the story of Burt's life and career, from the days of his childhood in the 1890s down to the last years of controversy.
