Title is accurate... Mar 09, 2010
By A. Haga While not the most "go-to" on my bookshelf, the title of this book is NOT misleading. It is a very PRACTICAL guide to special education as a profession, including but not limited to several pages defining the ever-changing list of acronyms associated with the profession! It has an in-depth look at the 2004 IDEA revision, etc.
Good book but the publisher messed up Jul 09, 2011
By sunshinecutie This is a great book - it was used as a textbook in one of my education courses. However, when the publisher had the books put together the order of the pages was severely messed up. The page that stated which chapter you were looking at was there and then the pages would jump to halfway through the chapter. Hunting for the actual first page was not ideal. After exchanging this book 4 times through amazon I finally gave up because the semester was half over and there was no longer a point to returning and receiving books that were exactly the same.
