Summary of “Small Wonders”

The article “Small Wonders”, written by Andrew Marshall, discussed factors affecting how and why prodigies are made. The ethnicity and geography are obviously irrelevant. Research shows that the drive comes from different functioning of their brain’s neural circuitry compared with other ordinary peers. Although there is no definite answer to the occurrence of difference, researchers and expects have came to an agreement that both nature and nurture have influences on giftedness. Moreover, prodigies should act their ages because they are still children.
