The authors explored the psychological and social impact of learning disabilities through interviews with 32 parents, teachers, clinicians, and people with learning disabilities from 20 countries and six continents.

This book provides a theoretical understanding of learning disabilities, along with practical information that can be used by learners, their families, teachers, and professionals.
