Über diesen Podcast

In today’s society, we tend to hone our expertise in a given field into what could be called "vertical intelligence." The Mensa Education & Research Foundation’s podcast series, Conversations with Mensa, gives us all the opportunity to expand our social intelligence by examining a multitude of topics, thus enhancing our intelligence "horizontally." Conversations with Mensa covers facets of intelligence as seen through the Mensa Foundation's programs, the Mensa Research Journal and Mensa Colloquiums. It shares new ideas from Mensa members and recognized experts, presenting these insights to the general public in an easy-to-use format. Topics are as wide-ranging as the psychology of poker, ADD and current issues in cosmology.
