Reviews

It is the best, if not the first, 'how-to' book for people who would innovate in institutions for mentally retarded people. ... Organization and writing quality are uniformly good, chapter outlines are remarkably clear ... (the book) clearly conveys many good lessons and helpful 'how-to' suggestions for professionals in mental health, social work, and other human services. -Contemporary Psychology
