David Egnor

The author’s meticulous research and his unique, comprehensive approach to writing promotes an easy grasp of the nature and effects of the policy process that led to the IDEA discipline amendments.

The author begins the text by exploring the origins of the discipline controversy and moves into a discussion of the history and process of the latest IDEA reauthorization.
