Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

xvi, 464 pages. Notes. Bibliography. Name Index. Subject Index. Inscribed by author on fep. DJ has a tear and creasing at top of rear flap. Howard Earl Gardner (born July 11, 1943) is an American developmental psychologist and John H. and Elisabeth A. Hobbs Professor of Cognition and Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education at Harvard University. He is currently the senior director of Harvard Project Zero, and since 1995, he has been the co-director of The Good Project. Gardner has written hundreds of research articles and thirty books that have been translated into more than thirty languages. He is best known for his theory of multiple intelligences, as outlined in his 1983 book Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences. Derived from a Kirkus review: It takes chutzpah to come up with a scheme for analyzing creativity--especially in subjects already exhaustively examined. But for psychologist and MacArthur fellow Gardner, it amounts to a natural progression from his earlier dissections of intelligence. Gardner chooses prototypes of each variety and provides capsule biographies and analyses along such themes as the child versus the adult creator, and the creator in relation to others and to the work. Gardner finds sufficient commonalities among his seven types of intelligence to provide a synthesis: an ``exemplary creator'' (E.C.). This individual is somewhat ``marginal'' in the social milieu, born into a reasonably comfortable family away from the creative center. E.C. moves into a decade of mastery of the domain and accomplishes a critical breakthrough that may include the affirmation of a few chosen peers. Second and third breakthroughs may develop in successive decades until old age takes its toll. One has to hand it to Gardner for offering some provocative post-Eriksonian thoughts on creativity that are stimulating.
