''Inequality by Design: Cracking the Bell Curve Myth'' is a 1996 book by Claude S. Fischer, Michael Hout, Martín Sánchez Jankowski, Samuel R. Lucas, Ann Swidler, and Kim Voss. The book is a reply to ''The Bell Curve'' (1994) by Charles Murray and Richard Hernstein and attempts to show that the arguments in ''The Bell Curve'' are flawed, that the data used by Murray and Herrnstein do not support their conclusion and that alternative explanations (particularly the effects of social inequality) better explain differences in IQ scores than genetic explanations. ==The Bell Curve and social inequality== The book's particular focus is the book ''The Bell Curve'' but to some extent this focus is to illustrate a doctrine that the authors attempt to refute:
At its base is a philosophy ages old: ''Human misery is natural and beyond human re-demption; inequality is fated; and people deserve, by virtue of their native talents, the positions they have in society.'' From that ideological base, Herrnstein and Murray build a case that critics cannot simply dismiss out of hand. The book contends that Herrnstein and Murray's data explain, at best, only a limited amount of social inequality in the United States (between 5% to 10%) and that the analysis of the data in the Bell Curve is itself flawed.
