    <![CDATA[We live in a time of relentless change. The only thing that?s certain is that new challenges and opportunities will emerge that are virtually unimaginable today. How can we know which skills will be required to succeed?<br/><br/>In Five Minds for the Future, bestselling author Howard Gardner shows how we will each need to master &quot;five minds&quot; that the fast-paced future will demand:<br/><br/>-The disciplined mind, to learn at least one profession, as well as the major thinking (science, math, history, etc.) behind it<br/><br/>-The synthesizing mind, to organize the massive amounts of information and communicate effectively to others<br/><br/>-The creating mind, to revel in unasked questions - and uncover new phenomena and insightful apt answers <br/><br/>-The respectful mind, to appreciate the differences between human beings - and understand and work with all persons<br/><br/>-The ethical mind, to fulfill one's responsibilities as both a worker and a citizen<br/><br/>Without these &quot;minds,&quot; we risk being overwhelmed by information, unable to succeed in the workplace, and incapable of the judgment needed to thrive both personally and professionally. <br/><br/>Complete with a substantial new introduction, Five Minds for the Future provides valuable tools for those looking ahead to the next generation of leaders - and for all of us striving to excel in a complex world. <br/><br/>Howard Gardner - cited by Foreign Policy magazine as one of the one hundred most influential public intellectuals in the world, and a MacArthur Fellowship recipient - is the Hobbs Professor of Cognition and Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[This book was ok. I think the major lesson is that heavy academics should have journalists co-write or ghost write for them (al Steven Levitt with Freakonomics). Gardner's thesis is sound, and I think he makes a good point for the types of minds we'll need in the future. But I think rather than a 16...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/39464637">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Nice light read for the educator.  Has some nice ideas about what education should look like now that the information age is upon us.<br/><br/>Ultimately, the book should just have been a long article  - pick it up at the library and just read the first and last chapters and you are all set!]]></body>

    <![CDATA[We live in a time of relentless change. The only thing that?s certain is that new challenges and opportunities will emerge that are virtually unimaginable today. How can we know which skills will be required to succeed?<br/><br/>In Five Minds for the Future, bestselling author Howard Gardner shows how we will each need to master &quot;five minds&quot; that the fast-paced future will demand:<br/><br/>-The disciplined mind, to learn at least one profession, as well as the major thinking (science, math, history, etc.) behind it<br/><br/>-The synthesizing mind, to organize the massive amounts of information and communicate effectively to others<br/><br/>-The creating mind, to revel in unasked questions - and uncover new phenomena and insightful apt answers <br/><br/>-The respectful mind, to appreciate the differences between human beings - and understand and work with all persons<br/><br/>-The ethical mind, to fulfill one's responsibilities as both a worker and a citizen<br/><br/>Without these &quot;minds,&quot; we risk being overwhelmed by information, unable to succeed in the workplace, and incapable of the judgment needed to thrive both personally and professionally. <br/><br/>Complete with a substantial new introduction, Five Minds for the Future provides valuable tools for those looking ahead to the next generation of leaders - and for all of us striving to excel in a complex world. <br/><br/>Howard Gardner - cited by Foreign Policy magazine as one of the one hundred most influential public intellectuals in the world, and a MacArthur Fellowship recipient - is the Hobbs Professor of Cognition and Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education.]]>

    <![CDATA[We live in a time of vast changes. And those changes call for entirely new ways of learning and thinking. In Five Minds for the Future: Howard Gardner defines the cognitive abilities that will command a premium in the years ahead:  <p> &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;the disciplinary mind&#8212;mastery of major schools of thought (including science, mathematics, and history) and of at least one professional craft &lt;li&gt;the synthesizing mind&#8212;ability to integrate ideas from different disciplines or spheres into a coherent whole and to communicate that integration to others &lt;li&gt;the creating mind&#8212;capacity to uncover and clarify new problems, questions, and phenomena  &lt;li&gt;the respectful mind&#8212;awareness of and appreciation for differences among human beings and human groups &lt;li&gt;the ethical mind&#8212;fulfillment of one&#8217;s responsibilities as a worker and citizen <p> World-renowned for his theory of multiple intelligences, Gardner takes that thinking to the next level in this book, drawing from a wealth of diverse examples to illuminate his ideas. Concise and engaging, Five Minds for the Future will inspire lifelong learning in any reader as well as provide valuable insights for those charged with training and developing organizational leaders&#8212;both today and tomorrow.</p></p>]]>
