The Special Education Battlefield Review

The Special Education Battlefield
Average Reviews:

Andrew Cuddy is a very experienced practitioner of special education law who really knows his stuff. As I am a special education attorney myself, most of the material in the book is not news to me, but most parents of disabled children will find the ample and accurate information very helpful. Mr. Cuddy definitely has strong opinions, and he pulls no punches in displaying his contempt for many school district attorneys and administrators. Even some parents of disabled children do not escape his trenchant wit, as Cuddy coins the term "Mad Buffalo Syndrome" to describe parents who have not made Peter Wright's transition from emotions to advocacy. I highly recommend this book for parents of disabled children: Cuddy's aggressive approach to the field has helped many parents and their children, and this book should help a parent understand the remedies and procedures available on behalf of disabled children.

The Everyday Guide to Special Education Law - A Handbook for Parents, Teachers and Other Professionals, Second Edition
This is my favorite book for special education law! I require it for all my students in my university teacher education courses. As a special education teacher, I use it often. I have this book all tabbed out to the sections I refer to the most often. It has been great to share with parents so they understand the legal requirements in our field. This book answers most of my special ed legal questions immediately. I have also used it to help my administrator know the law. Highly recommended!
