"Biological determinism is, in its essence, a theory……" — Stephen Jay Gould

"Biological determinism is, in its essence, a theory of limits. It takes the current status of groups as a measure of where they should and must be ... We inhabit a world of human differences and predilections, but the extrapolation of these facts to theories of rigid limits is ideology."

Stephen Jay Gould
