Book Review of Living With Intensity: Understanding the Sensitivity, Excitability, and the Emotional Development of Gifted Children, Adolescents, and Adults

reviewed on + 35 more book reviews


This book is a must for anyone who was a gifted child or knows a gifted individual. Learn about research into the workings of the gifted mind--a mind that experiences life at a level most people can't even imagine! Learn that maybe you weren't too intense; you were just trying to get to a new level of understanding and living while the majority around you was perfectly content to stay the same.

This is academic, yet accessible to anyone with the curiosity to want to read it. The descriptions of intensity in real life stories may help you to recognize and appreciate someone in your own life.
