Rezensionen

'This is a nicely balanced and honest textbook on the complex notion of intelligence. It has breadth, depth, and volume. It covers all important questions and possible answers, certainties and uncertainties, speculations as well as empirical findings. It is written with love for the topic, with inspiration, ambition, and wisdom.' Paul De Boeck, Ohio State University
