Author Thomas Armstrong has studied this theory for several years and has written extensively on the subject. However, this book was written specifically for young people. Armstrong believes that everyone exhibits varying degrees of all of the intelligences that Gardner proposed. We are strong in some and need to work on developing others, which can be a lifelong project.
Overall this is a very positive uplifting book that encourages young people to explore and nurture their abilities and talents without trepidation. In my opinion it should be mandatory reading for middle school students as they embark on their career exploration paths.
