      abstract = {This volume presents current controversial issues  surrounding special education in a debate-style format  designed to stimulate student interest and develop critical  thinking skills. Special education is the education of  students with special needs in a way that addresses the  students' individual differences and needs. Common special  needs include challenges with learning, communication  challenges, emotional and behavioral disorders, physical  disabilities, and developmental disorders. This topic is  framed with a general summary and introduction, and a  postscript or challenge questions. This work features an  annotated listing of selected World Wide Web sites and an  online instructor's resource guide with testing material  available. This book includes 20 issues, addressing active  debates in the field, introducing questions of social  policy and practice as it pertains to special education.  This work also highlights perspectives on educational  expectations and outcomes and presents critical  considerations about atypical learners and the treatments  suggested for their benefit.},
