O knihe

A volume in Chinese American Educational Research
and Development Association Book Series
Series Editors: Jinfa Cai, University of Delaware
The book "Gifted Education in Asia: Problems and Prospects" is the first of its kind in terms of
providing a critical assessment of the state of gifted education in nine representative countries or
regions in Asia (Hong Kong, India, Japan, Mainland China, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea,
Taiwan, and Turkey), five commentaries that put gifted education in a global context, and a conclusion chapter that provides a
long-term projection of future developments in gifted education in an information age and knowledge economy in the 21st century,
and what challenges and opportunities lie ahead for Asian countries. As Asia has become an economic powerhouse globally, and its
education has also gained global attention (e.g., its stellar performance in international comparisons such as PISA), gifted education
gearing toward the cultivation of the most precious human capital gains added importance.
Authors of the 15-Chapter volume come from Asia, Europe, and North America, and they represent top experts in the field of
education. The book is an authoritative source of knowledge for anyone interested in gifted education, talent development, and
creativity in this region. Policy makers, business and school leaders, teachers, educational researchers, and parents will find this
book informative and thought-provoking.
