"...If you are looking for a place where Sternberg’s enormous body of work on talent, abilities, intelligence, insight, reasoning, creativity, wisdom, expertise, and giftedness is pulled together into one book, this is the book for you.... provided practical guidance for parents, psychologists, and educators who wish to foster the development of exceptional abilities in all children.... Educators wanting to use the book with their graduate students will want to provide careful guidance, in which case Explorations in Giftedness could happily be used to stimulate discussion of the big questions in the field..."
