Exceptional Children: Integrating Research and Teaching provides a
com prehensive introduction to the constantly changing area of
special educa tion. The book is research-based, and its title
reflects our opinion regarding the important link between research
and classroom practice. There is one feature of Exceptional
Children: Integrating Research and Teaching that warrants attention
and perhaps justification; it was written specifically to address
the graduate student or sophisticated undergraduate student mar
ket. As such, the book is written at a higher level and with a
greater concept density than typical introductory special education
texts. We feel that this type of book is very much needed and will
be received favorably by the special education community. There are
also several unique features of Exceptional Children: Integrat ing
Research and Teaching that we feel will be quite valuable. First,
we have emphasized the area of teaching practices and not simply
included basic facts about definitions, characteristics, and
causes. Although some intro ductory texts include information about
teaching considerations, that area is not discussed as in depth as
it is in our text. We feel that it is important that readers not
only understand the educational needs of exceptional chil dren, but
also can identify the best educational practices to meet those
needs."
