The fact is that the relationship between intelligence types and different academic skills and life achievements has attracted the attention of a great number of scholars in almost any discipline. This research-driven book is still a new addition to the growing list of publications intended to reveal the relationship between intelleigence and academic writing ability in an EFL context.
