Author Description

"This handbook provides a systematic and comprehensive overview of a series of often related themes which underpin theoretical and philosophical approaches to pupils perceived as having EBDs and their realization in both policy and provision." "Assembled here are contributions from significant authors in the field of EBD. Although contributions are principally from the UK and the US, particular emphasis is given to the international and comparative focus of these writers who have been identified because of their capacity to develop broader transcultural insights." "This book has been written to enable individual chapters to be useful resources for students, academics and practitioners."--BOOK JACKET
