PREVIEWING A COLLABORATIVE EXPLORATION OF GIFTED EDUCATION leaders whose trustworthiness with the destructive power they hold is, at the very least, questionable. This volume is unlike others in the field of giftedness: It seeks to understand the term “giftedness” in the context not just of past and contemporary challenges, but also of future challenges, some of which hold the power to destroy civilization as we know it. The volume represents the kind of thinking for where the field of giftedness needs to go, not just where it has been. NOTES 1 The term globalization signifies the massive socioeconomic, technological, and cultural integration of populations around the world (see Beneria, 2003; Goldin & Mariathasan, 2014; Rodrik, 2007; Sen, 2010; Stiglitz, 2003; Tsing, 2004). More details about the nature of globalization and the problems and opportunities it creates appear in the next chapter of this book. 2 Prominent scholars from various disciplines argue that we have reached a point where our influences on the biosphere can spin out of control and precipitate the implosion and disintegration of lifesustaining systems some time in the 21st century. The next chapter in this book provides more detail. 3 The essentialist conception of giftedness revolves around gifted-nongifted distinctions based on the permanence of general intelligence. See David’s chapter for details. REFERENCES Ambrose, D. (2009). Expanding visions of creative intelligence: An interdisciplinary exploration. Cresskill, NJ: Hampton Press. Ambrose, D., & Cross, T. L.
