Morality, Ethics, and Gifted Minds brings together the leading
thinkers from diverse scholarly fields to share and integrate their
perspectives on morality and high ability (giftedness, talent,
creativity). These two broad areas of inquiry should have much more
overlap and interconnection than currently exists. One of the may
justifications for such connection making is the pressing need for
the application of intelligent, creative minds to the many ethical
dilemmas facing the world today. Another is the troubling
propensity for some of the most creative, gifted people to generate
or catalyze those ethical dilemmas. Along with many other leading
authorities, most of the authors contributing to this book
frequently lament the lack of wise analysis and problem solving in
education and in attempts to grapple with moral issues in today's
complex, socioeconomic, political, and cultural arenas.
This book explores much of the current wisdom on ethics and
morality while developing new perspectives on the ethical
dimensions of high ability. Prominent authors from diverse
disciplines are brought together, recognizing that no single
discipline can capture the essence and entirety of nettlesome,
complex, multidimensional moral issues. More specifically, the book
explores new dimensions of ethics and morality; magnifies the
importance of applying highly intelligent minds to ethical issues
while developing ways to strengthen the ethical awareness of the
creative and gifted, and brings diverse, interdisciplinary
perspectives to bear on these issues.
Morality, Ethics, and Gifted Minds will be of interest to
researchers and practitioners in the fields of gifted education,
creative studies, and general education.
