Ex-Library, The fourth edition of this classic text surveys and interprets notable scientific advances in the firld of mental deficiency and society's changing attitude to handicap during the past decade. With the rapid expansion of research in biomedical, psychological and educational fields, this pioneering work, which first appeared in 1958, has been completely rewritten. It has also been restructured to emphasize the multi-disciplinary nature of scientific endeavours on behald of mentally retarded ersons. Contributions from an international group of experts represent countries as disparate as Britian, Canada, Sweeden, the United States and Zambia. They are combined in such a way as to ensure that no member of one professional discipline is likely to remain unaware of the contribution of others, particularly in the areas of aetiology, prevention and amelioration.
