This first collection of plays by Charlotte Jones includes her multi-award winning Humble Boy (Susan Smith Blackburn Award 2001, the Critics'' Circle Best New Play Award 2002, and the People''s Choice Best New Play Award 2002). ''Charlotte Jones . . . one of our most accomplished and entertaining young playwrights.'' Financial Times Airswimming ''The structure and writing - admirably clear and unsentimental - both trip the light fantastic too, effortlessly gliding from the desperately funny to the desperately sad.'' Guardian In Flame ''Watching Charlotte Jones''s play, In Flame, is an experience of pleasure virtually unalloyed. It is funny, but with depth; painful, but with delicacy.'' Financial Times ''A play about life and death, love and lust, guilt and hope and dreams and the whole damn thing. It has some of the best writing I have come across recently: vigorous, poetic and lethally funny, probing hearts with warmth, compassion and irony.'' Sunday Times Martha, Josie and the Chinese Elvis ''What strikes one is the play''s generosity of spirit and belief in human potential . . . confirms that Jones has a great future.'' Guardian Humble Boy ''Sad, very sad: funny, very very funny . . . this is a seriously wonderful play.'' Sunday Times ''Rich, original, intelligent, funny and touching . . . I can''t recommend this lovely play too highly.'' Daily Telegraph

"''You never told me how crazy you were,'' Jack started again. ''On a scale of one to ten, you said? I''m off the charts. Actually, I''m here for the final fitting for my straitjacket.'' I spoke before thinking, and then went rigid as I realised I had done the forbidden: made a joke about mental illness."Meredith has been clinically depressed since she was fourteen years old. She can''t see the point of trying to change anything now. Until a chance encounter with a bipolar boy makes her want to start fighting. Aged seventeen, Meredith meets Jack in their psychiatrist''s waiting room. However, Meredith has a fear of physical contact of any kind. In between swapping witty quips are moments of raw honesty, though neither of them is quite able to face up to the reality of living with a mental illness.

Federal involvement in the education of the handicapped increased significantly with the enactment of the Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975 (P.L. 94-142) in the 94th Congress. This legislation amended the provisions for State assistance under Part B of the Education of the Handicapped Act (EHA, P.L. 91-230, title VI, as amended) to require that a "free appropriate public education" be available for all handicapped children age 3 through 21 by September 1980. P.L. 94-142 authorized increased Federal financial assistance along with new requirements for participating State agencies and local school districts. Current issues relating to Federal policy for the education of the handicapped include concerns about costs and responsibilities in educating the handicapped, about the level of Federal financial support, about the characteristics of handicapped children actually identified and served, about the implementation of P.L. 94-142 requirements by State and local school districts, and about Administration proposals to revise Part B regulations.
