	The field of gifted education is coming to maturity in Australia. It is no longer necessary to argue that young people who demonstrate the potential or capacity for talented performance need appropriate programs in schools. However, the best means by which potential is to be recognised and nurtured remain matters for debate. There is increasing acknowledgment that our beliefs about the nature of giftedness affect the kinds of programs we choose to create. This book draws on the wisdom of practitioners, researchers, parents and talented people themselves, to probe deeper into the challenging questions of how talent is to be developed in schools. It is intended to provoke discussion and reflection amongst those who wish to run inservice programs within their own schools, as well as those who are beginning to establish programs and seek a structure with which to begin.
