Author Perske, a voice for conscience

Robert Perske convincingly demonstrates that persons with retardation and other disabilities are capable of functioning in the mainstream of community life. He specifically approaches the issue of those persons moving into otherwise "average" neighborhoods. With insight and compassion, he shows how their presence in the neighborhoods can be a uniquely positive experience. New Life in the Neighborhood
