    Content: "This book attempts to treat its topic, concept learning, from a "problem oriented" point of view. Concept learning is an important part of the organization of knowledge. Therefore it is worth treating in its own right; not solely as a topic in logic, a type of behavior to be derived from psychological theory, or a possible area of application for electronic computers. An attempt has been made to bring together some of the relevant material from all these fields. To keep the book within a reasonable size, it was necessary to exercise considerable selection in including theoretical points of view and reports of particular research. Inevitably I had to use my own judgment. Therefore I had best state my own biases. I originally became interested in concept learning as a topic in psychology, somewhat later I became interested in the application of digital computer programs to inductive reasoning problems. My knowledge of symbolic logic is largely self-acquired, I can only hope that I have made an adequate presentation of the role of concepts, as conceived by some philosophers, in formal logic. With these limitations in mind, I hope that this report will be useful in correlating the efforts of many researchers who have approached the same topic in diverse ways"--Preface.

    Content: In this revised and updated edition of Hunt's classic textbook, Human Intelligence, two research experts explain how key scientific studies have revealed exciting information about what intelligence is, where it comes from, why there are individual differences, and what the prospects are for enhancing it. The topics are chosen based on the weight of evidence, allowing readers to evaluate what ideas and theories the data support. Topics include IQ testing, mental processes, brain imaging, genetics, population differences, sex, aging, and likely prospects for enhancing intelligence based on current scientific evidence. Readers will confront ethical issues raised by research data and learn how scientists pursue answers to basic and socially relevant questions about why intelligence is important in everyday life. Many of the answers will be surprising and stimulate readers to think constructively about their own views.

    Content: This book is a comprehensive survey of our scientific knowledge about human intelligence, written by a researcher who has spent more than 30 years studying the field, receiving a Lifetime Contribution award from the International Society for Intelligence. Human Intelligence takes a non-ideological view of a topic in which, too often, writings are dominated by a single theory or social viewpoint. The book discusses the conceptual status of intelligence as a collection of cognitive skills that include, but also go beyond, those skills evaluated by conventional tests; intelligence tests and their analysis; contemporary theories of intelligence; biological and social causes of intelligence; the importance of intelligence in social, industrial, and educational spheres; the role of intelligence in determining success in life, both inside and outside educational settings; and the nature and causes of variations in intelligence across age, gender, and racial and ethnic groups.
