520 0 _aIn recent decades, cognitive psychologists have discovered that several qualities of mind, such as empathy, creativity, conscientiousness, and teamwork, that were previously thought to be fixed in early childhood, continue to develop and hence are potentially teachable in college. This book explores what we know and don't yet know about how to develop these capabilities and how colleges can overcome the current obstacles to progress.
