Page "Anthropometry" Paragraph 31

J. Philippe Rushton, psychologist and author of the controversial work Race, Evolution and Behavior ( 1995 ), reanalyzed Gould's retabulation in 1989, and argued that Samuel Morton, in his 1839 book Crania Americana, had shown a pattern of decreasing brain size proceeding from East Asians, Europeans, and Africans.

Rushton alleged an average endocranial volume of 1, 364 cm³ for East Asians, 1, 347 for white Caucasians and 1, 268 for black Africans.
