Gifted Children: Myths and Realities

Dr. Ellen Winner's book focuses on both intellectual and artistic giftedness. This book has a developmental psychology perspective, but also addresses educational issues. Of particular note to those who work with the profoundly gifted, Winner makes a case that public funding for gifted programs should be focused on the most profoundly gifted students first, with higher classroom standards the means for meeting the needs of the moderately gifted.
