Maintaining its widely respected and unique focus on the critical role of a variety of professionals - in education, psychology, counseling, health care, and human services - HUMAN EXCEPTIONALITY: SCHOOL, COMMUNITY AND FAMILY, International Edition, is a testament to how cross-professional collaboration can and does enhance the lives of exceptional individuals and their families as it strengthens and supports the work of the professionals themselves. After a comprehensive six-chapter introduction to the foundation and challenges across the lifespan for people with exceptionalities, the successive nine chapters focus on definitions, classifications, prevalence, causation, and characteristics of the major categories of exceptionality. Categorical chapters also provide practical information on the educational, medical, and social services aspects of working with people who are exceptional. An excellent resource for pre-service and in-service teachers as well as a range of human services professionals, the book's unique, human approach combines the most current research, detailed personal stories about exceptional persons, and fresh pedagogical features that help students understand and apply the material.

Human Exceptionality provides a uniquely multidisciplinary and lifespan approach to the study of exceptional individuals. The first half of Human Exceptionality examines the foundations of exceptionality from a multidisciplinary perspective and lifespan approach. The second half focuses on definitions, classifications, prevalence, causation, and characteristics for the major categories of exceptionality. Discussion of each disability area concludes with practical educational, medical, and social services aspects of working with people who are exceptional. Up-to-date research informs discussions that are intelligent, interesting, and humanistic. By taking a human services approach, this book is appropriate for teachers in training, as well as those who are planning to work with persons with disabilities in other human services contexts, such as psychology, social work, allied health and counseling.

This text examines different types of research questions, the design or planning process, and the analysis and interpretation of results. In this edition, the authors address both qualitative and quantitative methodology, examine single-subject and group experiments, and advise on selecting an appropriate analysis. A feature of this book is the research simulations, which give students practice at each step of the research process. These practice problems are accompanied by simulation feedback at the end of the chapter.
