Thanks for posting the link, Cricket2. I clicked through though and couldn't figure out what she was saying about asynchrony; I searched for Stephanie Tolan's blog but although I found a website of hers didn't see more commentary. I'm just wondering what take she (or the book) has on asynchrony, other than that it apparently exists in some gifted kids. If they're talking about giftedness and social/emotional immaturity, I would probably be interested in learning more (especially because other than the James Webb Misdiagnosis book I haven't seen much about it and the professionals I've talked to seem kind of dismissive and disposed to diagnose myriad disorders). But I'm not prepared to spend another $25 on a book that I am going to skim and throw back on the bookshelf (no disrespect of the authors or their work intended).
