- catalog abstract ""The slow emergence of a coherent theory of the structure of human abilities' is both the subject and the object of this volume. Professor Wiseman has chosen Readings from philosophers and psychologists, covering a century of speculation, hypothesis and research on man's intellectual powers. The earlier papers provide the student with a historical perspective from which he can appraise the present position. In the last section of the book Professor Wiseman presents some of the results of research into learning theory and into human ability. The integration of these two sectors of psychological enquiry will, he believes, revolutionize the work of the educational and vocational psychologists of the future." -- Back cover.".
