Review Quotes:

TES Book of the Week

' A meaty, informative and moving book, and one that anyone interested in the rise and fall of special education should read' - Times Educational Supplement

'Armstrong's book, with its nuanced analysis of the consequences of special education and the discourses underpinning it upon people's lives, spotlights the reproduction of enduring inequalities and, in so doing, opens up spaces for the production of new, more egalitarian, meanings and practices. It deserves to be very widely read.' - European Journal of Special Needs Education
