Description: A unique comparative study in which the editors have brought together and international team of researchers from eight countries to develop case studies exploring inclusion and exclusion in schools and then in the national context.
Review Quotes: "The book succeeds admirably in exposing the multiplicity of perspectives surrounding "inclusive education...."The individual commentaries and summary chapter offer a good deal of analysis and critical reflection that serve both to anchor inclusive education debates in the realities of school practice and to tease out the implications of different perspectives."

"The book succeeds admirably in exposing the multiplicity of perspectives surrounding "inclusive education...." However the book does more than set out the different perspectives. The individual commentaries and summary chapter offer a good deal of analysis and critical reflection that serve both to anchor inclusive education debates in the realities of school practice and to tease out the implications if different perspectives. In doing so, it helps advance understanding of one of the central and most challenging topics in contemporary school reform.."
