| Abstract
|
:
|
"Smarts" contains the groundbreaking 'Executive Skills Profile': a powerful self-assessment tool that identify, once and for all, a person's innate strengths and weaknesses, twelve specific cognitive functions that begin developing in the brain at birth. These "skills" are built in to every individual and are fully developed - and unchangeable - by adulthood. Supported by proprietary primary research and grounded in widely accepted principles of clinical and neuro-psychology, "Smarts" is a truly eye-opening book that will change how we think about ourselves - and others
