Frames of mind
The Theory of Multiple Intelligences
Book • 1983
In 'Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences,' Howard Gardner argues against the traditional view of intelligence as a uniform, static quality.
Instead, he proposes that there are several distinct types of intelligence, including linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic.
Gardner's theory broadens the definition of intelligence and highlights the various ways in which humans can exhibit intelligent behavior, beyond the conventional measures of 'book smarts.
' The book is a celebration of the diverse ways human beings can be intelligent and has had a significant impact on educational practices and the understanding of human potential.
