This is the most demanding book I have had to review because it is difficult to do it justice... It is thought provoking, erudite, accessible and informed.

As do most classic works, it seamlessly combines the best of prior work with innovative ways of looking at old predicaments.Diversity in Gifted Educationis of value to the scholar, the practitioner, and the advocate of gifted education. It should be read with care by all examining new paradigms for gifted education.-Gifted Education International
