"A convincing -- and moving -- case for the great potential of even an 'ordinary' mind." --Parade
In Ungifted, cognitive psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman -- who was relegated to special education as a child -- offers a new way of looking at intelligence. He explores the latest research in genetics, neuroscience, and psychology to challenge the conventional wisdom about the childhood predictors of adult success, arguing for a more holistic approach to intelligence that takes into account each individual's abilities, engagement, and personal goals.
Combining original research and a singular compassion, Ungifted increases our appreciation for all different kinds of minds and ways of achieving both personally meaningful and publicly recognized forms of success.
