An Essential Book

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2017

Verified Purchase

First, this book is a collection of short essays on various subjects regarding education and gifted children, all of which are essentially state of the research essays: that is, they briefly survey studies that touch on the subject at hand and summarize what is known and unknown. Which is not in any way meant to be a condemnation of this book. It is but description.

That said, this is not only an excellent source book on the subject, but nigh requisite for parents, educators, and anyone who is in any way involved with how gifted and talented programs are handled in public education. Especially for those who are active or invested in how gifted programs are run in school systems. Indeed, it is a weapon in the fight to defend such programs from attack, and a potent tool to help programs grow intelligently.

Simply: if you have a gifted child or if you are involved in how educational systems treat gifted children, buy this book. Read it. Wield it.

Development of Gifted Children

Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2014

Verified Purchase

This book is filled to capacity with results of research on Gifted children and adolescents. Each chapter tackles a different aspect of the issue. Very complete but also superficial. More important, it lacked a cohesive thread binding the chapters together. But if you want a book that packs a whole lot int a few hundred pages, this is the one.

Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2010

I am reading this book for a graduate class. I think it is very informative and well written. The chapters are easy to understand, thorough, useful, and succinct. I recommend it to teachers, counselors, physicians, school administrators, or parents of gifted children who want to understand this group of students better.

Social & Emoptional Development

Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2012

Verified Purchase

I was disappointed in the book. I purchased it for a class, and was hoping to get ideas for how to deal with the social and emotional issues faced by gifted students. I did not get any. The book did lay out perceived needs, focusing on studies done. That part was fine. I just wanted suggestions/ideas for helping the gifted child deal with some of these challenges.

The book contains a wealth of information on the subject and includes contributions from various leaders in the field.
However, despite being a new copy, it fell apart on first reading. Shame on the publisher for producing such a shoddy binding.
Other readers might want to consider getting an electronic copy or alternative edition.
