It is a classic study of the everyday lives of previously institutionalized people with mental retardation. For the first time, the author allowed these people to speak about their own lives, their fears, and their hopes. He focused on the role of stigma in their lives and their efforts to pass as normal, as well as the need they had for normal benefactors. Now, using the same ethnographic methods, Robert Edgerton follows up the original population over a period of three decades. His new findings greatly expand our knowledge of these individuals, suggesting that as they grow older they increase their social competence, life satisfaction, independence, and ability to contribute to the lives of others. Human service professionals and others concerned with mental retardation will welcome Edgerton's discussion of current issues such as the role of environmental factors in modifying mental retardation and the need for new conceptual approaches.

"La résilience concerne l'aptitude d'un individu à surmonter les traumatismes et à se construire malgré les blessures. Le fonctionnement résilient s'édifie sur un jeu complexe de processus défensifs d'ordre intrapsychique et de facteurs de protection internes et externes. L'étude de la résilience vient compléter le champ de la psychologie clinique et de la psychopathologie en constituant un nouveau modèle fondé sur l'approche du sujet considéré dans sa globalité, avec ses ressources et ses processus défensifs autant que ses fragilités. Cet ouvrage explicite les fondements théoriques du modèle de la résilience et ses articulations avec celui de la vulnérabilité. Les différentes formes d'approche théoriques et cliniques de la résilience sont interrogées, ainsi que ses apports, ses limites et ses applications pratiques."
