Howard Gardner's Missing Intelligence

He'd always found Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences—Logical-Mathematical Intelligence, Spatial-Visual Intelligence, Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence, etc.—alluring.

Then he spent time with Jerome.

After that, he began to wonder whether Gardner shouldn't have added at least one more: Conspiratorial Intelligence.

He was loath to call it intelligence, exactly, and yet there was a kind of mad genius to Jerome's spectacularly convoluted worldview.
