Synopsis Enduring Issues in Special Education by : Barbara Bateman
Critical Issues in Special Education is aimed at any course in the undergraduate or graduate special education curriculum that is wholly or partly devoted to a critical examination of current issues in special education. The book organizes fourteen issues into six parts. Each part begins with an introduction that provides historical, legal, and theoretical background information and organizing themes for the issues that follow. Each issue is then presented from two divergent viewpoints, each written in advocate language to be as compelling as possible. The book's objective, in addition to informing the readers about the issues, is to develop critical thinking skills in the context of special education. Key features include the following. Dialectic Format - Each of the fourteen issue chapters presents two convincingly argued, alternative positions on a particular issue. This dialectic format encourages readers to weigh the arguments, seek additional information, and come up with a synthesized position of their own. This, of course, is the essence of critical thinking. Organizing Framework - The sections have been arranged according to a 6 Ws scheme (why, who, where, how, when, and what) that is the essence of most investigative reporting and provides a coherent, easy to manage framework for readers. Pedagogy - Each of the book's six parts begins with a brief introduction that provides background information for the issues that follow and each paired discussion ends with questions that provoke a critical analysis of the contrasting positions just presented. Expertise - All issue chapters are written by leading researchers who are highly regarded experts regarding the issue at hand.

Synopsis Moral Issues in Special Education by : Robert F. Ladenson
The book identifies and analyzes important yet insufficiently explored moral issues in k-12 special education. It aims to achieve a successful combination of experience and theory. The experience comes from the many years the author was an Illinois special education due process hearing officer (1987-2007). The theory comes from the even more years he taught and did scholarly work in the areas of moral, political, legal, and educational philosophy as a philosophy professor (1969-2012). Each of the moral issues considered in the book figured importantly in one or more of the most significant disputes the author was called upon to adjudicate. Throughout the book he draws upon important concepts in moral, political, legal, and educational philosophy as conceptual resources. He considers these concepts invaluable for analyzing moral issues, especially when a person experiences discomfort caused by a sense that an issue is morally problematic but finds it hard to articulate the crux of the issue. Throughout the book, however the author has tried hard to write in language that readers unfamiliar with the terminology and discourse style of philosophy can understand, and always to make it apparent why and how particular philosophical points bear upon important moral issues in k-12 special education.
