On Gifted Elders

On Gifted Elders: Awareness, Aspirations, Advocacy, not only dispels the myth that giftedness is a construct applicable solely to our school years but provides insight into the world of the gifted elder. Joy Navan, Ph.D. addresses the continued, often urgent, need of our gifted elders for continued learning, engagement, and productivity. With understanding and sensitivity as a therapist and gifted elder herself, Dr. Navan provides the reader (and those in their care) with a toolbox purposefully equipped with practical tools and readily implemented strategies. Whether you are a gifted elder, a member of the sandwich generation caring for a gifted elder, a therapist, or assisted living facility director, On Gifted Elders will provide you not only insight to our gifted elders, but a perspective from which you can best support and accommodate their very special needs.
