Summary |
Seven high-flyers - a musical prodigy, a quantum physicist, an artist, a dramatist, an RAF fighter pilot, a chess grandmaster and a Wall Street trader - are put through a series of tests to discover who is the most intelligent. The principle way that we measure intelligence, the IQ test, remains popular and convenient. Yet most psychologists agree that it only tells half the story - at most. Where they disagree is how to measure intelligence, for the simple reason that the experts still don't know exactly what it is. (From the UK) (Documentary) (Rpt) G CC |
