Handbook of Intellectual Styles: Preferences in Cognition, Learning, and Thinking

The concept of intellectual styles has had a controversial history based on diverse philosophical and theoretical foundations. Most recently, the idea of intellectual styles-an umbrella term that covers such closely related constructs as "cognitive styles," "learning styles," "teaching styles," and "thinking styles"-has gained momentum as an explanation for why different people succeed in different professional and organizational settings. Previously, it was thought that high-achievers simply had more innate abilities than their less successful peers, but research has shown that individuals have different intellectual styles that are better suited for varying types of contexts and problems.

al-Ghazali - Makers of the Muslim Worldal-Ghazali - Makers of the Muslim World

In this book, I aim to convey the essentials of the life and thought of
a religious genius too little known beyond the specialist world. For
the breadth, subtlety and influence of his work, Ghazali deserves to
be counted among the great figures in intellectual history,worthy to
be ranked with Augustine and Maimonides, Pascal and Kierkegaard.
This book is intended for readers with no previous knowledge of
Ghazali or indeed of Islamic intellectual history. This means I have
been obliged to summarize and simplify many crucial points, though
not, I hope, to over-simplify.

The Te of PigletThe Te of Piglet . . . in which a good deal of Taoist wisdom is revealed through the character and actions of A. A. Milne's Piglet. Piglet? Yes, Piglet. For the better than impulsive Tigger? or the gloomy Eeyore? or the intellectual Owl? or even the lovable Pooh? Piglet herein demonstrates a very important principle of Taoism: The Te--a Chinese word meaning Virtue--of the Small.
