This book changed the way I look at brain/mind/intelligence. I am a proponent of the incremental intelligence theory, and this book takes the triune brain theory, a working model of the brain and its evolution, and provides clear and concise information and insight on each of the 10 intelligences that the three sections of the brain are comprised of. Great read.
