Description
This historical reference chronicles parental involvement-or the surprising lack of-in mental retardation services from 1876 to 2000 in America. Thirty-two papers taken from the American Journal on Mental Retardation and Mental Retardation speak forcibly on the field's relationship with families of persons with intellectual disabilities. "I would encourage all staff working directly with families as well as those responsible for policy development to read this book-both the original articles and the editors' reflections." Journal of Learning Disabilities
