Description
This text gives an account of the fight to achieve basic human and civil rights for people with learning disabilities. It records a series of campaigns and lobbies designed to persuade governments to improve the quality of service and provision for people with learning difficulties. In addition, the book provides overviews of how practice has changed in various fields of service provision - education, residential and day services. The book contains two comparative chapters on Europe and North America, and there is a final section which is concerned with the theme of changing public attitudes.
