This book should be read by everyone who wants to understand special education today.
New Perspectives in Special Education opens the door to the fascinating and vitally important world of theory that informs contemporary special education. It examines theoretical and philosophical orientations such as ‘positivism’, ‘poststructuralism’ and ‘hermeneutics’, relating these to contemporary global views of special education.

Anyone wishing to gain a fuller understanding of special education should not be without this stimulating and much needed text.
