    A revolutionary book that deserves a lot more traction than it gets now.
  

*by T***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 July 2016*

An eye-opening book. As the parent of a child who fits this classification to the letter, from family background to the reaction that they have to her gifts and her stubbornness at nursery, I can say that this book is an absolute gem. I had never heard of the 'condition' until an educational consultant working with an organization for gifted children recommended it, and I have to say it's a great relief to have found out about it. It had gotten to the point where I had to show videos of my child counting to 100, saying her alphabet, solving mazes in under 10 seconds, etc. at nursery, for them to even consider the idea that she may not be autistic, hyperlexic or anything other than a gifted child who simply feels pressured unnecessarily into doing the most boring things imaginable for absolutely no reason other than the gratification of some people with pre-conceived ideas, who behave as if they want her to fail just to prove their point. And don't even get me started on that whole 'high-functioning autistic' non-sense. You can't expect to put people with an IQ just above sea level with savants and anything else in between in the same category and expect nobody to think it's absolutely ludicrous. And there's no such thing as a 'happy case of cured autism'; only mistaken diagnoses.Finally, there's some recognition for the fact that a child can be an autodidact, and nobody at home makes them study anything to 'turn them' into zombies. Finally, there's the suggestion that just because some children don't perform on demand, it doesn't mean that they're unable to. And finally, there's an acknowledgment of the fact that it's bonkers to label 3-year-olds, instead of waiting to see how they develop by themselves in a year's time. I know exactly what my child is going through, because I was in her shoes 25 years ago. I would have been labelled a high-functioning autistic by today's standards. I was expelled from nursery for not interacting with other children, as if nursery's supposed to be a hang-out where you're supposed to go and hook up like some randy bachelor in a bar, not the place where your parents dump you so they can have a few quiet hours to themselves (which, I'm sorry to say, parents, it is). Whoever thinks nursery is a place to study and make friends most definitely isn't gifted, and to act as though all children should behave the same way their parents did 30 years ago is also incredibly naive. Also, to put your child's future in the hands of people who have only ever been told that what they're doing is right, without knowing what the alternatives are, is equally foolish. So, thank you, Mr. Sowell, for a well-written book, that I hope gifted children with speech delays will benefit from in the future, because right now it looks as though not much has changed from the time when Ritalin was dispensed like mints. And good luck to all you parents out there who have been made to feel like your child is too much to handle, placing too big a burden on the educational system, or that you're in denial about your child's (in)abilities. Hang in there and prove them wrong!

    An eye opener and a relief
  

*by K***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 February 2018*

I was sceptical when i bought this book, as the title seems to imply a child that fits the described criteria is a genius. My son is a bright boy but probably not a genius. And he is severely delayed in his speech development. But this book has been an invaluable resource in helping my son....and myself. Reading this lifted a weight off my heart. I have never met a child like my son. But all the children described in this book show the exact same cluster of symptoms and traits. This has been a huge help in building my confidence that my son will be just fine. While i'm a believer in the value of speech therapy an behavioral therapy, more so than the author appears to be, i found his research credible, insightful and very helpful. Highly recommended.
