with disabilities—including an in-depth examination of the

Entirely reprinted, with extensive updates and
revisions throughout, the 2007 revision features: a fully revised
special education chapter; coverage of the reauthorization of the IDEA
and New York’s regulations implementing it; changes to Social
Security and Medicare; a new section on HIPAA; coverage of the new ABA
model rule; a new section on World Wide Web accessibility; and recent
case law throughout.
An alternate format is available for individuals with visual
impairments. Please call 518.487.2609.
