Feminist Perspectives on Disability provides a much needed synthesis of the ideas in two high profile fields, feminism and disability studies. It is written by an experienced researcher and teacher and will not only prove a valuable addition to the series but will also make an important contribution in its own right to the development of theory and practice in these two fields.
Feminist Perspectives on Disability provides a unique introduction to the key debates in relation to both feminism and disability. The author considers contemporary similarities, differences and contentious areas and how concepts drawn from postmodern feminism can be usefully applied to the disability arena.
The book explores many important aspects of the field, including: biological debates; issues of power, knowledge, equality, difference, subjectivity and the body; interface of public and private/care and community; medical and social barriers; politics, citizenship and identity.
Feminist Perspectives on Disability will be compulsory reading for students of all levels in Women''s Studies, Gender Relations, Social Policy, Social Work/Social Care and social Science.
