Summary
This volume presents the basic issues and up-to-date research findings in the area of genius, giftedness and creative behaviour. It gives an appreciation of the potential that exists among talented children and adults and how this can be transformed into highly significant and personally satisfying achievements. It also shows that such achievement involves great personal effort but can be facilitated by human relationships, institutional interventions, and historical conditions which present parents, educators and society with opportunities for maximizing the development of genius, giftedness, and creativity.
