Book synopsis

Examining the notion of "empowerment" theoretically, this text looks in detail at how we think and interact with people with learning disabilities, emphasizing the importance of the voice of those people being heard. It discusses the building of mechanisms of power at the policy and service levels on the basis of the choices, wishes, needs, and desires of learning-disabled people in their everyday lives. The aim of this approach is to respect and protect the interests, rights, and entitlements of people with learning disabilities, and consequently ensure that their dignity and quality of life can be maximized as far as possible.
