Hanna David (née: Ehrenstein), PhD was born in Jaffa in 1952 to a

father immigrating to Israel from Vienna in 1938, and Hungarian

mother, a survivor of Auschwitz. The second in a 4-child family she

had insisted on starting nursery school at the age of 13 months,

together with her 13-months older brother, and since then showed

deep interest in public speaking, making friends and initiating social

intercourses; somewhat later she started reading and has not

stopped since. At age 15 years she became a youth-writer of

“MA’ARIV LA’NOAR” – the youth edition of the then most published

daily Israeli paper, which had led her to publishing of Hebrew and

English short stories, and translating to Hebrew, mainly from German. At age 18 she graduated from

the Ultra-Orthodox girls’ high-school in Ramat Gan and started her mathematics, physics, Hebrew

literature and high-school teaching certificate studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. In 1975

she received her MA from the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York, and soon afterward started

her family. Hanna David received her PhD, “magna cum laude”, in educational psychology (minors:

didactics of mathematics and education) from Ludwig Maximilians Universität, München, She worked

at the Tel Aviv University between 1976 and 2004.

Prof. David’s interest in giftedness started when she was 11, with the birth of her brother who, like all

males in the family, was gifted. While still in high school she became an expert of accelerated teaching

for Ultra-Orthodox boys whose parents wanted them to get “secular” education in addition to the

religious one they received in school. Teaching and 16odernizati the gifted became Hanna’s

recognized expertise in 1995, when she started teaching the course: “the gifted child in the regular

classroom” at the Talpiyot Teachers’ College in Tel Aviv. Since then she has taught in 3 other high

education institutions, and instructed many students in the field of gifted education.

In the last 15 years, Prof. David has become a popular 16odernizat for gifted students, with or without

disabilities; a known expert of gifted education in Israel and abroad, an often invited lecturer in national

and international conferences and meetings; an expert evaluator for the European commission, and a

prolific writer of 10 books and over 90 articles.

Professor Raphael C. Njoku is Graduate Chair of African History at

University of Louisville, United States of America who holds doctorates

from the Vrije University at Brussels (2001) and Dalhousie University

(2003). He is a specialist in African History and Politics, African Social

and Economic History, African Culture and Development. Professor

Njoku is the author of the famous work Culture and Customs of Morocco

(Greenwood, 2005), and African Cultural Values: Igbo Political

Leadership in Colonial Nigeria 1900–1966 (Routledge, 2006). He is also co-editor of Missions, States

and Colonial Expansion in Africa (Routledge 2007). He has also published 20 articles in scholarly

journals, edited volumes, and encyclopedias. With a fellowship from the New York based Schomburg

Center for Research in Black Studies, he is currently working on a new book project entitled Symbols

and Meanings of African Masks and Carnival of the Diaspora.

As a scholar, Professor Njoku had been devoted to the search for answers to contemporary Africa’s

issues. Africa today poses more questions than answers. To the world, Africa pleads for

understanding—yes, a crucial understanding about its culture, its peoples, and its setbacks. Until it is

understood at what point the “rain of depredation” started beating the people, it might be difficult to

reverse the precarious situation of the continent today. His mission is to continue to search for

answers to the Big Puzzle through research and teaching while hoping that a better knowledge of the

people, their culture, their psychology, and their worldview hold the key to Africa’s future.
