The Psychology of High Abilities Bewertungen

'...a very readable and informative book which comes at a crucial time!This book is recommended to both parents and teachers.' - David George, Educational Research 'The book packs into its less than 200 pages a fine review of much of the literature on high abilities. [The author] supports his suggestions with research and his tone talks to, rather than down to, the reader. The book will be of interest to educators and psychologists with an interest in the psychology of high abilities. The book has a number of strengths: good writing; skillful combination of theory, research, and practice; sensible selection of topics; the author's obvious command of the subject matter; a coherent and consistent point of view favoring experiential explanations of high ability; and an optimistic tone.' - Robert J. Sternberg, Yale University
