First published in 1987, this book focuses on childhood disability
within the family. It examines the very nature of disability
itself, as well as many of the fundamental elements of families.
The book was written at a time when the meaning level of disability
and its effect on family and society were rapidly changing and
people with disabilities were starting to benefit from
opportunities to compensate for whatever disabilities they may have
had. Modern technology and an affluent society afforded advantages
to support many of its disabled members. Contributors examine the
contemporary context of disability, the cost of disability to
families, ethical, philosophical and social issues underlying the
treatment and rehabilitation of children with severe disabilities,
and the role of professionals, amongst other topics. This book will
be of interest to those involved in teaching, research and direct
care with families who have children with disabilities. Although
written in the late 80s, the work discusses subjects that are still
vital today.
