Special Edition: A Collection of Works on Giftedness in Adults (2005)

This issue was expressly created as a “recognition read” through which gifted individuals might identify themselves. Two kinds of writing are here: powerful articles from previous volumes cover Dabrowski’s theory, characteristics of gifted adults, gifted women’s self-perceptions, the impostor syndrome, female networking, therapeutic issues of the gifted, career counseling issues, and the importance of recognizing and supporting creativity early in life. New articles examine that pervasive “out-of-sync” feeling that haunts the gifted, gifted “ex-children,” female networking, inner conflict and mid-life crisis a la Dabrowski, and how the work of Virginia Satir lives on in the therapy of a gifted west coast counselor.
