Detroit, MI, Omnigraphics, 2000. LC Call no. The Mental Retardation Sourcebook is part of a series of health reference sourcebooks. This is being presented as a first edition, but is partly a revision of a previous work due to revisions of the series. Some are compilations of more than one fact sheet.
Basic information is provided related to the chapter titles.
Because of the sources of the information, some chapters seem to contradict other chapters, as least in minor ways. The glossary is helpful but not adequate for the general public. A medical dictionary would be useful with this volume. The strength of this work is that it compiles many basic fact sheets and addresses for further information in one volume. It is intended and suitable for the general public.
