Originally published in 1976, this introductory text for those
intending to work with slow learners was concerned with the
practical implications of recent British and North American
research in the field of psychology and education at the time. Slow
learners are young people who for a variety of reasons,
continuously or for long periods, under-function in terms of
intelligence, educational attainment and social skills. This book
offers a clear analysis of the problems facing slow learners, their
psychology and the types of education open to them. Dr Brown
reassesses the needs of disabled children and adults in the context
of their families, with the emphasis on the practical level of
activity and training possible for them. The aim is the integration
of the disabled person in society, and the belief is that services
for the disabled should be integrated, with no professional person
working on an isolated basis, but as part of a multidisciplinary
professional team. Design for individuals entering the field of
teaching, particularly those concerned with special education,
training and rehabilitation programmes, the book should also be of
value to social workers, psychologists and other professional
people working in the field, as well as to parents of disabled
children.
