<p><i>"Researchers in the field of human intelligence, and anyone with a scientific interest in the topic, are well-served by Sternberg's editorial work in bringing the best research together on a regular basis."</i><br />—<b><i>Contemporary Psychology</i></b></p>
First published in 1987. Since the 1960s, we have witnessed a remarkable resurgence of interest in the psychology of human intelligence.
