About the Book

"SMART ISN'T WHAT IT USED TO BE" True or false? Statement 1. It's usually no secret who the smart kids are - they are the ones with the great grades and high scores on standardized tests like the SAT. Statement 2. A child is either born smart or not. Statement 3. Children with the highest IQ gain the most success in life. The answers: false, false, and false. Smart isn't what it used to be. The understanding we have gained about intelligence in recent years has turned old notions on their heads and has created a giant wave of insight and encouragement for parents and children everywhere. In this clear, crisp, reader-friendly introduction to the subject, Dr. Droge, a Harvard-Yale educator, provides a wealth of information about what today's smart and savvy parents know about increasing intelligence. The bugle call from a growing number of scholars and educators alerts all of us to the wisdom and research that clarifies the true meaning of intelligence, traces its roots and development, and confirms a potentially bright, intelligent future for every child. Here, in a book that will be appreciated by parents, teachers, grandparents, caregivers, and all who are interested in the topic of intelligence, readers will find basic information about the workings of a child's brain, about how every child is unique, and about the definition, origin, and development of intelligence. Succinct entries describe different forms of intelligence - not just in math and language, but also musical intelligence, personal intelligence, emotional intelligence, athletic intelligence, and more. Parents may recognize some of these intelligences - they have seen them in their child and simply not fully understood them. Other areas discussed include IQ, learning, memory, genius, parent-child language interaction, and reports on theories and research of important scholars and educators in the field. For those who wish to go beyond the information provided in this brief-by-design volume and delve deeper into any particular subject, a resources section is filled with relevant books, articles, studies, and Web sites. Concise, yet packed with powerful details, this book explains the current thinking that every child is special and has a personal genius within, waiting to be discovered.
