A Synthesizing Mind: A Conversation
With Howard Gardner's memoir "A Synthesizing Mind" as a point of departure, Steven Pinker will ask Gardner to review his varied scholarly interests and contributions over the course of Gardner's 62 years at Harvard. In addition to reflections on Gardner's well known theory of multiple intelligences, the speakers will cover several other strands of Gardner's research program including, most recently, what it means to have a 'synthesizing mind."
Questions from the audience will be welcome.
