Una mente sintética

Throughout his career, Gardner has been interested in the human mind in general, and in the minds of creators and leaders in particular. Now, reflecting on his own, he concludes that he possesses a "synthetic mind" that has given him the ability to analyze experiences and data from a wide range of disciplines and perspectives. Gardner argues that the synthetic mind is especially valuable in these times, and proposes ways to cultivate a capacity that is likely to be uniquely human. In this singular autobiography, Gardner reflects on his own intellectual development and his revolutionary contributions, while reviewing his evolution from that boy in love with books that he was to becoming the renowned Harvard professor that he is, also going through his days as a university student. ambitious and disillusioned graduate student.
