The expert guide to the major issues and most promising strategies for meeting the needs of high-ability, culturally diverse students!
Biased testing strategies, societal pressures and the attitudes of teachers are but a few of the obstacles that hamper efforts to identify and serve the needs of culturally diverse gifted students.

Key features include:
- Alexinia Y. Baldwin's review of the literature on underrepresented populations in gifted programs and her recommendations to ensure that the needs of gifted culturally diverse students are met
- Case studies of culturally diverse, high-potential students
