In Carol S. Dweck's "The secret of raising smart kids", the author opposes the commonly accepted assumption that smartness is a deal of gift or talent. She provides evidence and explanations of why this is not so, and cites the consequences that might have upon a kid if his/her parents encourage his/her smartness as a talent and not something that is built and gained by hard work.
