Every ophthalmologist should know something of the history of the special educational facilities for visually handicapped children. This book gives an excellent historical background, and defines the needs of the partially seeing child in respect to special educational facilities and the methods of providing these. In addition to its usefulness as part of the general education for every ophthalmologist, this book will be of interest to administrators, supervisors, teachers, nurses, social workers, and all others concerned with the welfare of the visually handicapped child. An adequate appendix gives a glossary of terms and general instruction about the eye to lay readers.
