“This book will be the benchmark tool for the field of special education teacher training...I am excited about this book.”
Blanche Glimps, Tennessee State University
“Not only should every pre-service teacher read and study this text, every administrator should do the same...I really like this text. The writing delivers the message. It is what separates this book from so many of the others. The others “talk at students” this one “talks with them.”
Martha J. Meyer, Butler University

Ellyn Arwood, University of Portland
