The Gifted Child in Peer Group Perspective is a multi-faceted, developmental exploration of the peer relations of gifted children. Using diverse methods, the author reviews and analyzes the empirical studies on social status of gifted youngsters and contrasts these findings with the social self-concept of gifted children.
