Reviews

The book is excellent. It is very up-to-date and I am so pleased to see the inclusion of specific chapters on LGBT children and families and transgender. This is going to be a really exciting book. Jonathan Glazzard - Course leader for Primary Education and Early Childhood Studies, University of Huddersfield, UK. The book is interesting and informative, a good introductory text for under graduate and foundation degree students. It is well laid out and the case study and activities approach used is extremely helpful when working with students, it helps them develop a reflective understanding of inclusion in practice and engages their interest in developing a deeper understanding. Clare Woolhouse - Senior Research Fellow, Faculty of Education, Edge Hill University, UK.
