In these unprecedented volumes, experts from around the world
spotlight the latest research on physical and psychological
disabilities, as well as the social, legal, and political issues
that come to bear on those people affected. These authors teach us
what the disabilities are, how common they have become, what
challenges people with disabilities face, what treatments are
available, and whether new promising efforts for rehabilitation are
on the horizon.
We also learn, in these volumes, about social actions that have
advanced human rights for people with disabilities in countries
around the world. Yet, we learn that in these same countries,
discriminatory actions against people with disabilities continue to
occur. The impact of different cultural beliefs about disability
are explored and these beliefs are juxtaposed against legislative
responses. In all three volumes, people with disabilities share
their personal narratives about events they have faced in society.
They provide rich examples of how culture, social interactions and
legislation can impact on people.
