A world-renowned expert on human intelligence argues that societies continue to use a flawed, early twentieth-century conception of human intelligence. Instead of focusing on narrow academic skills, we should adopt the values of 'adaptive intelligence,' defined as the use of talent in service of the common good.
High IQs don't improve the world. Adaptive intelligence does, because it prioritizes the common good over individual success.
'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
