Editorial Reviews

'The authors have bravely faced the challenge of designing a framework for an inclusive approach aimed at teaching children to think effectively. This contribution to the literature is of great theoretical and practical value and is highly recommended for all people (from trainee teachers to experienced educators) involved in enabling children to become aware of diversity through a globally relevant curriculum while applying appropriate thinking skills in order to solve problems effectively.' - Gifted Education International
