'This text should be on the reading list of students who intend to
work in this important field. It will help them to understand the
historical and social contexts in which this specialised area of
care has been developed and a qualitative research process that
recognises the importance of taking consultation seriously.' -
Community Practitioner'I found the depth of historical content in
the book insightful. In addition, the involvement of service users
in the research study adds to the ongoing debates surrounding
involvement. This book is informative and enlightening and I think
its contents are appropriate for those individuals working with
adults with learning disabilities, both in practice and at policy
and management level.' - Carmel Doyle, Lecturer, School of Nursing
and Midwifery, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland'Concannon's detailed
social and political history of the past three centuries will
provide a good reference for social work or social policy
students.' - CommunityCare.co.uk
