Description
Summary:The authors are leading academics in the field of disability studies from the UK and most have disabilities themselves. Since this is a second edition, the book begins by reflecting on the last 10 years and it is suggested that "the more things change, the more they stay the same," a somewhat discouraging introduction to a text; however arguments are later presented that question the notion of disability as tragedy, thus engaging the reader.
