With Warnock, the so-called 'architect' of inclusion now pronouncing this her 'big mistake' and calling for a return to special schooling, inclusion appears to be under threat as never before. This book takes key ideas of the philosophers of difference - Deleuze, Foucault and Derrida - and puts them to work on inclusion. The book offers new challenges for those involved with education to invent new ways of tackling the 'problem' of inclusion.
