Recensie

Dit lijvige boek werd tot 2014 als standaard gebruikt in de ECHA-opleiding ‘Specialist in Gifted Education’ van het CBO (Centrum voor Begaafdheidsonderzoek) aan de Radboud Universiteit te Nijmegen. Het is een vuistdik boek van een goeie zeshonderd pagina’s, met een zeer klein letterype, in het Engels geschreven en bevat de beste samenvatting van wat geweten zou moeten zijn over hoogbegaafdheid.
