"Adding this book to your library will not only serve as a practical reference for the history of the inventing field, but also serve as a teaching resource to bring those lessons to the classroom."
Martha Van Loon
Grade Six Science Teacher
Kenneth Zushma
Technology Education Teacher, Heritage Middle School, Livingston, NJ
Former Executive Director, New Jersey Technology & Engineering Educators Association
"In one book, writer and inventor Harry Roman has managed to jell the essence of how to think and develop a creati also provides discussion questions that further enhance and deepen student learning.
"I recommend this book not only to G & T teachers but also regular classroom and special needs teachers. There is something that appeals not only to every teacher, but more importantly, to every learner."
Susan Bermeo, Science Teacher
Hillside Elementary School Montclair,
NJ
Professor Michael E. Walters Touro College New York City, and Center for the Study of the Humanities in the Schools
"Harry Roman has done it again! Invention, Innovation and Creative Thinking in the Gifted Classroom presents a perfect opportunity for students to explore their imaginations as they create numerous possibilities to meet the challenges that Mr. Roman presents. The creative mind is nurtured, fed and in a state of constant evolution as students delve into his activities. I love it. It's SNIBBLES on steroids!"
Judy Micheletti Berwick, PA
Master's of Education in Gifted Education
Author of SNIBBLES 1, 2 and 3
"As is usual with his exciting and exhaustive books, Harry T. Roman's new Invention, Innovation and Creative Thinking in the Gifted Classroom is a treasure trove of ideas for an open-minded teacher.
"Roman offers so many excellent ideas for sparking gifted students in their heads and hands that he is in danger of overwhelming the reader. Nevertheless, it boggles the mind that one individual can think of so much that would improve not only the youngsters who might be lucky enough to have a teacher responsive to Roman's offerings, but also society and mankind."

Fisher, Ph.D. & Eugenia M. Fisher, Ed.D. Editors "Heroes of Giftedness: An Inspirational Guide is an exciting new edition to gifted education literature. It well fulfills its purpose in the inspiring, exhilarating accounts of famous individuals and their contribution to the world. Gifted students, teachers, and parents will benefit hugely from these biographies of great men and women who overcame personal and professional challenges to move forward in their fields. The book is a singular compilation of biographies and offers many inside perspectives and anecdotal perceptions of heroes representing science, engineering, and inventing; medicine and biology; literature and poetry; art, dance, and the media. Role models abound argos near me. Gifted children and the adults who work with them will benefit from this compilation of heroes who are persons and distinct imparters to humanity. Maurice Fisher has done something wonderful for all of us in gifted education. We look forward to further editions." Joan Smutny, Director The Center for Gifted National-Louis University "My view of the world is that people are best served when they find their passion early on, because we tend to be good at things we're passionate about. I think we also need to find people whom we admire and try to emulate them."
