I.Q. , understand the construction of I.Q. tests, understand creativity versus intelligence, develop intelligence, and understand right-brain versus left-brain thinking.
Of all the subjects that intrigue our modern society, none is more fascinating than intelligence. Specifically, what do we mean by intelligence? How is it measured? Of even greater importance — what are the implications of such measurement to the individual?
Far more than idle curiosity prompts such questions. Not only is our educational system structured to channel the intelligence of the individual into desired and productive behaviors, but the entire society tends to create a hierarchy of status and reward based upon the perceived intelligence of its members. For the individual, who must cope with this complexity, the desire to know more about his or her intelligence and abilities is not just compelled by ego — it is vital knowledge that can impact every facet of existence. It is the purpose of this book to present not only an instrument for the measurement of the intelligence quotient (I.Q. ), but also other significant information regarding human intelligence that will be of value to the reader. If this book assists the reader to a more profound self-understanding and analysis of his or her ability to cope with the surrounding society, then it will have fulfilled its objective.
