Combines policy, practice and theory in its presentation of recent developments in disability studies. This unique book brings together key figures in the field, synthesising the work of both able-bodied and disabled contributors to assess the recent history, current practice and key issues in a rapidly growing and controversial new area.
The study of disability has traditionally been influenced mainly by medical and psychological models. The aim of this new text, Disability and Society, is to open up the debate by introducing alternative perspectives reflecting the increasing sociological interest in this important topic.
Disability and Society brings together for the first time some of the most recent original research in this rapidly expanding area. The contributors, both disabled and non-disabled, are all leading thinkers in their field and suggest new ways of understanding disability, developing policy and challenging current practice.
