Li briefly outlines three generations of intelligence research over
the past 100 years with attention to the origins and limitations of
early investigations and the resulting confusion and disagreement
in modern reinterpretations of the findings. He discerns an
emerging consensus among scholars and researchers that intelligence
should be considered primarily as a product of thinking and
learning. To find the essence of how thinking is possible and what
learning is, Li investigates theory and research in cognitive
psychology, developmental linguistics, animal behavior, and many
other related disciplines. He proposes the notion of conceptual
intelligence, i.e., human intelligence, as a result of thinking and
learning through concepts. Li traces how the human species created
concepts, and how conceptual thinking and conceptual learning make
the human species intelligent and creative. There is nothing
mysterious, intuitive, or innate about it. Our past thinking and
learning has created the intelligence of today and will continue to
create our intelligence in the future. How to think deeper and
learn better are the difficult questions for us now as we
consciously venture into new arenas of problem-solving and
cognition.
