Abstract	This journal theme issue focuses on attention deficit disorders (ADD) in gifted children. "Gifted Children with Attention Deficit Disorder" by Deirdre V. Lovecky outlines symptoms of ADD, types of ADD, issues of giftedness, strengths of gifted children with ADD, and methods for helping gifted children with ADD. "The Perplexed Perfectionist" by George W. Dorry accepts the positive and negative sides of perfectionism, notes the high personal and interpersonal expectations of gifted children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and describes treatment of these children by encouraging them to accept approximations of the perfect solution to a problem and by building steps of new learning that help the child to step away from dependence gradually. A special feature titled"ADHD or Gifted?" presents a dialogue with Sharon Lind and Linda Silverman which reviews 13 questions parents and teachers should ask to determine the child's need for special services. Regular columns discuss revisiting childhood, the dangers of ignoring the gifted, literature resources, creative ventures, and turnabout children. (JDD)
