About this audiobook

What causes a gifted child to be emotionally driven and highly empathetic? How come an intelligent person is typically self-motivated and self-disciplined to the extreme? The explanation lies in the fact that gifted people make a lot of connections in their brains. These connotations from interrelated facts and observations cause them to become both dramatic and extremely excited about occurrences in life, depending on what it is.


Dabrowski, a scientist and psychologist, called this quality “overexcitability.” It points to being intellectually curious and the chance of being overly sensitive. This has both positive and negative effects, but his way of dealing with this quality the best way, was something he called “positive disintegration.” In this comprehensive guide, we’ll cover that topic in full.


We will also expand on the effect of classroom size in elementary schools, separating groups of gifted kids from others, and more details that relate to educating the highly intelligent effectively.

    Just listening in my truck, I enjoyed this book. It's an appealing idea, the whole premise of this book. You don't usually see that in other books. And that's the reason why it can use an individual like me to write a couple of positive things about it. I completely appreciated listening to this book. It has all the components of a book about this issue that it ought to contain. Having said that, I am usually positive anyway, bu Wow! The publisher has really put some work into this audio book.

    I 'd like every person to know that I endorse this audio book. This was definitely worth my time. Lastly, a narrated book that gave me what I expected. One more detail: The storyteller appeared so good that I would listen to it in the future. And maybe more than once. I can't remember everything that's being said in these audiobooks, so it would be worth reminding myself of what was being said. I managed to understand every thing clearly, not even if the narrator pronounced the words properly, but also because the info in it included new things to be learned.
