Much has been written about special education and about inclusive
education, but there have been few attempts to pull these two concepts
and approaches together. This book does just that: sets special
education within the context of inclusive education. It posits that to
include, effectively, all children with special educational needs in
schools requires an integration of both concepts, approaches, and
techniques. It has never been more timely to publish a book that helps
professionals who work with schools, such as psychologists, special
education professionals, and counselors, to identify effective practices
for children with special needs and provide guidelines for implementing
these in inclusive schools.
