This book provides a multifaceted exploration of changing social attitudes toward disability. Adopting a tripartite approach to examining disability, the book looks at historical, cultural, and education studies, to break down some of the unhelpful boundaries between disciplines so that disability is recognised as an issue for all of us across all aspects of society.
