Summary

La gente valora su capacidad de pensar y la mayoría de nosotros estamos interesados ??en saber por qué algunas personas parecen conducir un cerebro Rolls Royce altamente afinado, mientras que otras trabajan con un Ford Fiesta simplemente útil. Esta muy breve introducción describe lo que los psicólogos han descubierto sobre cómo y por qué las personas difieren en sus poderes de pensamiento. El libro lleva a los lectores de ningún conocimiento sobre la ciencia de la inteligencia humana a una etapa en la que pueden emitir juicios por sí mismos sobre algunas de las preguntas clave sobre las diferencias en la capacidad mental humana. Cada capítulo trata un tema central, científicamente vivo y de considerable interés general, y se estructura en torno a un diagrama que se explica a lo largo del capítulo. Los temas discutidos incluyen si existen varios tipos diferentes de inteligencia, si las diferencias de inteligencia son causadas por genes o el entorno, la base biológica de las diferencias de inteligencia y si la inteligencia disminuye o aumenta a medida que envejecemos. <br><br> People value their ability to think. Most of us would like to know why some people operate their brains like a Rolls Royce, while others are driving a very simple, yet useful, Ford Fiesta. This text discusses what psychologists have discovered about how and why people use their abilities to think in different ways. It shows readers new findings in the field of human intelligence. It is a guide toward emitting better judgement, as it differentiates between various mental capacities. Each chapter takes on a main subject in a scientific light, with helpful diagrams to illustrate key concepts. You’ll learn about the various types of intelligence, and if these differences are caused by genes or the environment. Plus, you’ll explore the biology that leads to varying types of intelligence, and whether these decreases or increases as we age.
