A major premise of the book is that the translation and application of knowledge from different fields of study within core disciplines such as psychology, sociology, and anthropology is essential to the future of special education as an area of professional practice. The authors consider the complexity of the translation and integration of different knowledge bases, and the historical drift of craft and technical knowledge from research on learning, development, and social contexts. The primary focus of this book is on the integration and application of knowledge from different disciplines in the current moral and political context of special education policy and practice.
