I've studied and worked since the seventies on thinking, learning and motivation in psychology, biology, philosophy and education departments of three universities. I'm preparing a book manuscript, Developing Wisdom: A Guide for Parents, Educators and Ambitious Learners. My goal is to complete the ms and sell it this year.
