Life of Charlotte Bronte Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell
A leading psychologist explres what the development of extraordinary figures (Mozart, Freud, Woolf and Ghandi) can tell us of human capabilties and the development of our own minds. Gardner weaves together recent research in cognitive science, child development and psychology, in a book that is both intellectually interesting and provocative, but also makes the reader consider his own life and mind, in an effective and attractive crossover of serious and popular psychology.
