Bøker i Routledge Library Editions: Children and Disability-serien

Originally published between 1973 and 1990, this collection reissues twelve books that focus on the lives of children with mental and physical disabilities. Together, the books reflect research being done in the period and look at the challenges individuals, families, and professionals faced at that time. Topics covered include caring for children with disabilities, inclusion, and coping with particular disabilities.

First published in 1990, this book was the first informed study to focus on care within the voluntary sector. Written with the child in mind, it sensitively explores the administration, strategy, and problems facing carers in children¿s homes, at that time. Centring on small, community-based facilities, the authors discuss the processes involved in setting up and running such facilities.
