Product Description
The International Handbook on Giftedness is the most comprehensive and authoritative account available on what giftedness is, how it is measured, how it is developed, and how it affects individuals, societies, and the world as a whole. Recent advances in gifted education are discussed in detail. Leading specialists from around the world, responsible for much of the current research in the field, analyze the multifaceted nature of giftedness, its types, its specificity in various domains and contexts, societal demands on it, its relationship to economy, innovations in gifted education, and future trends. This Handbook goes beyond the existing handbooks: it analyzes, integrates, and presents research on giftedness, which was not considered elsewhere (e.g., neuropsychology of giftedness, talent in cinema, managerial talent, just mention a few). The handbook therefore extends a wide range of the multifaceted issues currently discussed in the field of giftedness. This Handbook presents the latest advances in the fast-developing areas of giftedness research and practice (e.g., gifted education and policy implications). In this regard, the corresponding chapters of the handbook focus exclusively on recent progress in these areas, on topics that have made a difference in the field. The handbook therefore adds move depth and insight in presenting a panoramic view of the field of giftedness. This Handbook presents fresh ideas (e.g., entrepreneurial giftedness or business talent, just mention a few), which will galvanize and guide the study of giftedness for the next decade. By identifying promising theoretical and applied trends, the handbook thus advances the field of giftedness.
