Gift of Dyslexia: Why Some of the Smartest People Can't Read and how They Can Learn	Excerpted from the Publisher's Comments: Davis shares the discovery he made that helped him overcome his own dyslexia He reveals how dyslexia may be linked to uncommonly high levels of intelligence, creativity, and imagination and outlines a clear and simple plan that anyone can use to help themselves or others conquer this all-too-common disability.
In the Mind's Eye	From the Publisher: In this updated edition to his fascinating exploration of the "ironies of creativity," Thomas West furthers his ground-breaking research on how some innovations in computer visualization are making work and education more favorable to visual thinkers. In the Mind's Eye exposes many popular myths about conventional intelligence by examining the role of visual-spatial strengths and verbal weaknesses in the lives of eleven gifted individuals, including Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Thomas Edison, and others. West cites research in neuroscience that shows a link between visual talents and verbal difficulties, and he believes that new developments in computer technology herald a significant shift toward the increased use of visual approaches throughout the economy. These changes may be as revolutionary as the technology of the book, which translated ideas into written words. The use of visualization and virtual reality computer displays has already begun to move out of the world of science into that business, representing marketing trends through moving pictures rather than tiresome charts and tables of numbers. According to West, creative visual thinkers (many of whom have had difficulty with verbal skills), aided by computers, will be at the forefront of innovation in a dramatically changing society. Critics: Exposes myths about conventional intelligence by examining the role of visual-spatial strengths and verbal weaknesses in the lives of 11 gifted individuals, including Albert Einstein and Thomas Edison. Examines research in neuroscience that shows a link between visual talents and verbal difficulties, and discusses developments in computer technology that herald a shift toward the increased use of visual approaches in business and science. This revised edition offers an expanded list of national and international organizations, and an updated bibliography. Includes b&w photos and illustrations.

Uniquely Gifted: Identifying and Meeting the Needs of the Twice Exceptional Student by Kay Kiesa	From The Critics Internet Book Watch In Uniquely Gifted: Identifying And Meeting The Needs Of The Twice-Exceptional Student, Kiesa Kay has amassed a wealth of insightful, informative, and occasionally challenging contributions from some of the finest minds in this specialized area of modern education theory and practice. The contributed essays are divided into four major sections: Family Matters - Perspectives from Family Members; Teaching Strategies - Learning and Leadership; Research and Theory - Discovering Possibilities; Administrative Options - Working Together. A highly recommended addition to education studies reading lists, Uniquely Gifted is further enhanced for the reader with a bibliography, Sandra Berger's "Internet Resources for Expanding Options in the Classroom; George Betts and Jolene Kercher's "The Autonomous Learner Model"; a section of notes on the contributors, and a striking conclusion "If Not You, Who?". Education Book Reviews Often teachers and society see the gifted student as an automatic academic success, winning awards and getting "A's" with relative ease and contentment. Problems in school are not supposed to be part of the package. Educational experts often speak of the academic privileges of the "elite." This book illustrates that reality is not so simple or pleasant. Kay makes a valuable technical resource powerful by including an opening section of personal stories by children and parents dealing with often-extreme intellectual precociousness, combined with frequently significant disabilities.

Keeping A Head In School: A Student's Book about Learning Abilities and Learning Disorders	From the Publisher: Keeping A Head in School: A Student's Book about Learning Abilities and Learning Disorders is written for students ages 9 to 15 years of age with learning disorders. This book helps students gain important insights into their problems by combining realism with justifiable optimism. Dr. Levine helps students not only understand their own strengths and weaknesses but also more fully appreciate their individuality. Most chapters begin with a case study based on the life-like situation of a student with one or more learning disorders. Each student's story is followed by questions to think about after reading the entire chapter. Throughout the book, diagrams, lists, and drawings illustrate important concepts. Keeping A Head in School is effective as a shared reading experience: for example, parents and children can read the book together, developing a common vocabulary and understanding about the learning process. A tutor, counselor, or psychotherapist can discuss a particular chapter with a student and/or parent. Other uses are as a resource in a course on health, development, learning, or psychology in the secondary school; or as reading matter for siblings or friends of students with learning disorders.
