'It is essential reading not only for students studying in this area, but also for the wider groups of people concerned with the well-being of those living with intellectual disabilities. It is a must for inclusion in people's libraries!'- Dr Marie Knox, Senior Lecturer, Social Work and Human Services, Faculty of Health, Queensland University of Technology, Australia 'The book handles the historical and policy context particularly well within an approach based on social exclusion and advancing rights whilst criticising the rhetorical and loose reference to rights within government policy formulation and articulation.'
