OverviewThis text challenges the theories on which the practice of educational psychology is based. The contributors offer a theoretical and historical critique of how intelligence is measured, and claim that current theories exclude or ignore many indicators of intelligence. Suggesting criteria upon which new models can be developed, the contributors hope to encourage educators and researchers to imagine new forms of intelligence, education and life.

It's jut this kind of work that enables us to see that psychological assumptions are always born of socio-political context, and that we can never rest content with the pedagocial status quo. <br>-Kenneth J. Gergen, Swarthmore College <br> The editors of this volume have set themselves an awesome task in challenging the fundamental assumptions of psychology. In short they 'politicize cognition, ' something that has been largely ignored but is desperately overdue. This book should be read by all who have an interest in matters educational. <br>---John Smyth, Foundation Professor of Teacher Education and Director, Flinders Institute for the Study of Teaching, Flinders University of South Australia <br> Author InformationShirley R.
