Howard Gardner is an American psychologist best known for his theory of multiple intelligences. He proposed that there are at least eight different types of intelligence rather than just one general intelligence. The eight intelligences are: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic. Each type of intelligence is associated with different skills and career paths.
