"Are There Additional Intelligences? The Case for Naturalist, Spiritual, and Existential Intelligences," by Howard Gardner, (appears in volume 2 and continues in volume 3), proposes three new "candidate intelligences" to add to the seven previously identified by the author. The following related article,"Multiple Intelligences and Gifted Education" (Colleen Willard-Holt and Dan G.
