This book gives a great overview of IDEA 1997 and 2004 and provides a thoughtful analysis of the evolution of special education policy. The book explains important special education concepts including inclusion, LRE, parents' rights, etc. A great read both for general educators looking to inform themselves about educating their students with disabilities or for those jumping into the special education field.

Interesting to read special needs issues from an America perspective.
