註釋What "Doc Spock" does for children's health care, Dr. Devlin does for children's education. Her book serves to relieve parents' anxiety when things are normal, to alert parents to problems, & to give them practical advice & the words to use when working with the school system. It is a must for hurried parents who want to do the best for their children but feel powerless when dealing with the complex school bureaucracy. ARROWS SWIFT & FAR urges parents to be activists. Starting with parents' first contact with the school, Dr. Devlin points out how they can & should take the initiative to ensure that the school understands their child. Only with this understanding can the school fulfill its mandate. Dr. Devlin stresses that parents are the authority on their own child, they know him best & must be his advocate. Ten chapters take parents through the range of situations which can positively or negatively affect their child's education. Parents need this information because, while they can delegate some responsibility for their child's education to the school, they cannot abdicate it. Order From: Nancy Devlin & Assoc., P.O.
