From the Publisher:

In paperback for the first time! This best-selling introductory special education title--one of our most successful!--is now available in a new Sixth Edition, a paperback edition that makes this outstanding text's wealth of material more affordable for students! This edition has been updated throughout to reflect recent changes in the field, including new coverage of inclusion, discussion of P.L. 101-476, and strong treatment of transition issues. There are new chapters on families of children with disabilities, and on cultural and linguistic diversity and exceptionality...expanded coverage of communication disorders...and updated material on legislation affecting infants and young children with disabilities. Known for its practical, enlightened, "lifespan" approach to exceptionality, its comfortable reading level, conversational writing style, and careful editing keep students interested, and add a unique sense of continuity to contributions by leading special educators. Throughout the text, appealing photo essays, and vignettes involving real people with disabilities, help breathe life into the narrative, and encourage students to view exceptional individuals and their families as ordinary people in extraordinary situations.
