Description: This book contains the first follow-up studies of more than 2,000 gifted seventh- and eighth-graders who are participated in the Johns Hopkins Study of Mathematically Precocious Youth (SMPY). The contributors to the program assess the effectiveness of its screening and educational techniques, explore the relationship between precocity and social adjustment, and report on the success of SMPY-type programs in other locales.
