| Synopsis: |
The author identifies the main ideas and practices that have shaped the relationship between disability and society, describes how these emerged over time and discusses their continuing impact on the lives and experiences of people with disabilities today. "Disability and Society": is based on a socio-political model of disability and, as such, it differs from most existing publications in the area that interpret disability as a medical or clinical 'condition'; places disability in a broad historical framework and links changing responses to disability with other important social, political and cultural movements. In this way, it may appeal to students of disability studies, social sciences, psychology, education, equality studies and health studies; and, is also aimed at those professionals and participants in disability awareness. |
