Příliš inteligentní na to být šťastný? Výjimečná inteligence: dar či prokletí? – Siaud-Facchin Jeanne (2008)

Being gifted is a valuable quality, but it also means being different, which can create a feeling of never quite belonging. How can gifted people recognize their abilities, succeed in life and make full use of their potential? Could exceptional intelligence also bring heightened sensitivity, vulnerability and suffering? Although high intelligence is generally viewed as an admirable advantage associated with success and happiness, gifted people may instead experience lifelong uncertainty, difficulties, misunderstanding and exclusion from their social environment. Their different way of thinking and experiencing the world can lead to further withdrawal. This book helps gifted and highly intelligent people understand their differences, while also serving as a useful tool for those who live and work with them, including people in management, education, science and the arts. It also provides valuable study material for psychologists, psychotherapists, educators and university students in these fields, as well as practical guidance and inspiration for talent scouts, personal development coaches and human-resources specialists.
