Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This book explores the qualitative differences that determine intellectual capacity, as opposed to merely measuring cognitive ability. The author investigates the complex interplay of mental processes, from basic functions like perception and memory to complex reasoning and comprehension, in order to understand how these capabilities vary across different levels of intelligence. Although the study focuses specifically on children with developmental disabilities, its findings provide valuable insights into the nature of intelligence itself. The author argues that traditional measures of intelligence, such as IQ tests, fail to capture the full range of cognitive abilities, and that a more nuanced understanding of intelligence is necessary to truly comprehend the complexities of the human mind. Ultimately, this book challenges us to rethink our assumptions about intelligence and to recognize the unique strengths and challenges faced by individuals with different cognitive abilities.
