Recenzii
'This book is a must-read and not just for the usual academic reasons. While most other academics are busy installing the stepping-stones on the scholarly path, Robert J. Sternberg is looking at the horizon. All of us will benefit from his expanded, more ethical conception of intelligence.' Don Ambrose, Professor of Graduate Education, Rider University, USA, and Editor of the Roeper Review
'This critical analysis is given by a scholar who revolutionised our understanding of human intelligence. In charting the evolution of his thinking, Robert J. Sternberg provides a conception of adaptive intelligence that will inform and guide our attempts to overcome the social, political, and environmental challenges that confront us.' Julian G. Elliott, Professor of Educational Psychology and Principal of Collingwood College, Durham University, UK
'If you want to read a provocative reckoning with classical theories and conventional tests of intelligence, you should read this book.' Joachim Funke, Professor of Psychology, University of Heidelberg, Germany
'The author states that the only way to ensure a better world is to replace our faulty notion of intelligence with one that centers on how we can improve the world around us. This book contains thought-provoking ideas for anyone interested in intelligence and the survival of our planet.' Diane F. Halpern, Emeritus Professor of Psychology, Claremont McKenna College, USA
'This book gives a new and practical meaning to what it really means to be intelligent in today's complex world.' Joseph S. Renzulli, Director of the Center for Creativity, Gifted Education, and Talent Development and Distinguished Professor, University of Connecticut, USA
'For readers generally familiar with the field, the challenges Sternberg poses are interesting. For newer readers, the review sections provide a helpful and interesting introduction to the field, and the remaining chapters make clear that the questions and issues are by no means settled business. Sternberg's writing style is both engaging and clear (and thus invites discussion), making this an interesting text to use in, for example, an advanced seminar … Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates. Graduate students, faculty, and professionals.' J. F. Heberle, Choice

Descriere
High IQs don't improve the world. Adaptive intelligence does, because it prioritizes the common good over individual success.
