Special Education: Reference Shelf

Encyclopedia of Special Education (4th edition) by Reynolds, C., Vannest, K., & Fletcher-Janzen, E. (eds.) The highly acclaimed Encyclopedia of Special Education addresses the practical, clinical, and research issues of critical importance to the field today. It both historically captures the terms, individuals, laws, and societal movements of more than four decades of Special Education, it also chronicles the evolution of special education. This fourth edition clearly marks the federal and state demands for evidence-based practices in classrooms and methodologically rigorous research. The only comprehensive reference devoted to Special Education, the four-volume Fourth Edition has been thoroughly updated and expanded. Developed by the leading researchers and scholars in the field, this is a must have reference for schools and clinics, teachers, learning and behavior specialists, educational diagnosticians, and school psychologists—and for those studying or conducting research in these fields. The new edition includes over 200 new entries, with increased attention given to those topics that have grown in importance since the publication of the third edition, such as: technology; service delivery policies; international issues; neuropsychology, response to intervention, positive behavioral interventions and supports, autism and applied behavior analysis.
