In the early 1980s, Howard Gardner (1983) redefined the concept of intelligence and suggested that intelligence is not a single entity, but a variety of talents. His theory of Multiple Intelligences, considers rhythmic / musical, kinesthetic, spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal, verbal, mathematical, existential and naturalistic intelligences. This theory acclaimed Gardner as the most influential educational theorist since John Dewey. Islam confirms Gardner's theory and proposes a variety of intelligences, which can integrate educational curricula and promote learning, teaching and all ways of human life. The 99 names of Allah constitute the pillar of these intelligences. They either match with Gardner's intelligence criteria, or are carefully confirmed findings by neuropsychology, and functional magnetic resonance imaging. Understanding these names might help neuropsychologists to understand the still hidden power of the brain.

This paper outlines the epigenetic logic of the emergence and elaboration of symbolization. The account is based upon considerations arising from the study of the ontogenesis and phylogenesis of symbolic communication, abstraction from which yields generalizations regarding the necessary developmental pre-requisites for the capacity for symbolization and the processes of the elaboration of symbolic capacity into language. resumen Este trabajo describe la lógica epigenética de la emergencia y elaboración de la simbolización. Esta descripción se basa en las consideraciones que surgen del estudio de la ontogénesis y la filogénesis de la comunicación simbólica, la abstracción desde la que se alcanzan las generalizaciones relativas a los pre-requisitos evolutivos necesarios para la capacidad de simbolización y los procesos de la elaboración de la capacidad simbólica en el lenguaje.

The socio-cultural status of stand-up comedians allowed them to comment with impunity on sensitive social issues, giving them the ability to normalize and abnormalize certain societal behaviors and beliefs. This Foucaultian social tool attracted the use of many historically disenfranchised groups on the merits of sexuality and race. Feminists noted a gender discrepancy in pay and appearance in the hierarchy of this industry and attributed it to systemic flaws, not just with the industry but with humor’s theoretical and conceptual structures. The aim of this research work is to assess the impact of their ideological quest for a new theory of humor on the integrity of American stand-up comedy. The application of Peterson’s “Political Correctness Game” framework suggests that there are possible ulterior motives behind calls to change the foundational structure of American stand-up. The problem that this paper attempts to address is whether calls for inclusivity in the framework of inte...
