They examine the difficulties of evaluating progressive services that are influenced by the philosophy of normalisation, and highlight the lessons from which other providers of services are able to learn. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten by experienced researchers with contributions from service managers, \u003ci\u003eNormalisation in Practice \u003c\/i\u003eoffers pragmatic advice on managing innovation efficiently without neglecting the needs of the child.
