Биография и Путь Автора
Scott Barry Kaufman’s career grew out of an experience of being underestimated. As a child with an auditory learning disability, he spent time in special education and later described those years as the beginning of his lifelong question: how much potential goes unseen when schools mistake difference for deficiency? A teacher in ninth grade helped redirect his self-concept, and that shift became a durable turning point. He went on to study psychology and human-computer interaction at Carnegie Mellon, earned an M.Phil. in experimental psychology at Cambridge as a Gates Cambridge Scholar, and completed a Ph.D. in cognitive psychology at Yale. From the start, his work centered less on ranking people than on widening the idea of what intelligence and talent can be.
