Summary

It may be taboo to say, but some groups in America do better than others. Drawing on groundbreaking original research and startling statistics, this book uncovers the secret to their success. A superiority complex, insecurity, and impulse control are the elements of the Triple Package, the rare and potent cultural constellation that drives disproportionate group success. But the Triple Package has a dark underside. Each of its elements carries distinctive pathologies; when taken to an extreme, they can have truly toxic effects. Should people strive for the Triple Package?
