"Some books are carefully placed on bookshelves and easily forgotten, while others sit on desks with their spines cracked and well worn from use. My copy of Osborne′s and Russo′s Third Edition of Special Education and the Law will soon be dog eared, highlighted in yellow, its margins scribbled with notes. Read it and you will use it." ―Todd A. DeMitchell, Professor University of New Hampshire "Every administrator should have this in their professional library to guide them in making appropriate decisions in scheduling and meeting students’ needs." ―Dr. Elizabeth Alvarez, Principal Chicago Public Schools
