I found it extremely interesting how they showed how animals can be trained to develope vocabularies, whether audible or signed. Its really interesting to think that dolphins and chimps can understand what you say sometimes.
I thought when the book talked about framing, it stated it very nicely. When you get complimented or rewarded when doing something, it is more likeable, and the person is likely to do it again. It was an iteresting topic and i thought immediately about how you get stickers on your helmet in football for doing something phenominal.
Insight and instinct were very interesting to learn about as well. It really made sense of why some people are just smarter than others. Smart people have better instinct and can remember/store information better to be brougt up instantly easier. They also seem to have more flashes of insight, or inspirational thinking moments

I think it's interesting that EVERYONE posseses insight and instinct, yet we all utilize it differently, contrubuting to one's intelligence. We all have the supplies, but we don't all come up with the same finished product.
