Reviews

"The range of guidance is good...Throughout the book, attention is paid to helping the child with special educational needs without nurturing a sense of confusion, failure or resentment....It gives a sound base of theory, policy and practical advice and I found it user-friendly and genuinely useful."--Special Children, October 2000
