Reviews


“Timely, wide-reaching, and in many ways, brilliant.…[Gardner’s] effort to bring together the data of neurology, exceptionality, development, and symbolic-cultural skills is not only heroic but makes extremely evocative reading.”
— Jerome Bruner, New York Review of Books

“For those of us who suspect that intelligence is too complex a phenomenon to be measured by the single number of I.Q. derived from an ’intelligence test,’ Gardner’s book is a refreshing experience and an open door into a whole new way of looking at human beings.”
— Isaac Asimov

“This book has significance for all of us.…[Gardner] is mindful in every sense of the word, and his book deserves to be read by mindful people.”
— Colin M. Turnbull, Philadelphia Inquirer

“A very impressive book and an important one. Gardner breaks out of the narrow molds of the psychometric theory and information processing and presents a rich conception of human abilities in many domains.”
— Ulrich Neisser, Emory University
