'Delivering Intensive Interaction Across Settings' - edited by Mark Barber & Graham Firth


Kindle Edition - £0.99 from Amazon (we tried to make it free, but the computer said "No"- this is the minimum fee allowed)

We hope that across its 14 insightful chapters this book will help as many Intensive Interaction practitioners as possible, across a range of care and educational settings, provide the best quality Intensive Interaction to all those who might benefit.

By reading about, and learning from, the experiences and reflections of our book's dedicated contributors, we hope that other services and organisations can more confidently apply Intensive Interaction in the most effective ways possible.
