Dr. Brian Skotko, Emma Campbell Endowed Chair on Down Syndrome, Massachusetts General Hospital & Associate Professor, Harvard Medical School, USA.

'Not only will you be able to read a book that contains the latest information available on inclusive practices in education, but you will also get the perspective of people with Down syndrome, contributors to this book. This is a handbook on inclusion and inclusive education for educators and parents everywhere.'

Dr Claudia Moreira, Scientific Advisor on Down Syndrome Research, Brazil.

'This is a brilliant, much needed resource for both education professionals and parents. It's also great to hear from the learners themselves about what they think worked best for them.'
