Those changes call for new ways of learning and thinking in school, business, and the professions. In this audiobook, psychologist Howard Gardner defines the cognitive abilities that will command a premium in the years ahead: The disciplinary mind - master of major schools of thought. The synthesizing mind - ability to integrate ideas. The creating mind - capacity to uncover and clarity problems, questions and phenomena. The respectful mind - awareness of and appreciation for differences among human beings. The ethical mind - fulfillment of one's responsibilities. Armed with these well-honed capacities, a person will be equipped to deal with what is expected in the future-as well as what cannot be anticipated. Without these "minds," individuals will be at the mercy of forces they can't understand-overwhelmed by information, unable to succeed in the workplace, and incapable of making judicious decisions about personal and professional matters.
