As William Roth was taking his first steps, members of his family
were caught up in the Nazi Holocaust. At age eight, he began to
manifest the symptoms of dystonia, a neurological disease
characterized by severe movement disorders. And at age forty-seven,
he was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the tonsil, a
cancer that would prove as invasive as his genetic disease and as
dreadful as his social persecution.Today, at age 65, Roth is more
than a survivor. Mobilizing his courage to spearhead the discipline
of disability studies, be active in the Disability Rights Movement,
influence government policy toward disability, and found the
non-profit Center for Computing and Disability, Roth used his own
disability to change the life of disabled people in America. This,
his memoir, is the story of three intertwined narratives and the
miraculous success that one man carved from them.
