Intelligenz - Grosse Unterschiede und ihre Folgen

Why we are not all equally intelligent. The extent to which intelligence is hereditary is a topic of intense public debate. However, from a scientific perspective, it is clear that there are genetically determined differences. Nevertheless, the potential that each person possesses only becomes effective when it is nurtured to the best of one’s ability within the family and school environment. In their new book, renowned intelligence researchers Elsbeth Stern and Aljoscha Neubauer explain how differences in intelligence and talent arise, how intelligence can be measured, how to recognize exceptionally gifted individuals, and how to foster intelligence. They clarify: intelligence is an individual resource that can only be developed within a community. And: we need gifted individuals now more than ever, as the success of our information and knowledge society largely depends on them.
