Images of disability pervade language and literature, yet disability is, as sex was in the Victorian world, the ubiquitous unspoken topic in today's culture. The twenty-five essays in Disability Studies provide perspectives on disabled people and on disability in the humanities, art, the media, medicine, psychology, the academy, and society.
"A superb reference source for those interested in exploring the field of disability studies, this volume brings together seminal essays by leading scholars in the area. . . . Essential." --D. J. Winchester, Yeshiva University "An exemplary introduction to the politics and the pedagogy of disability studies." --Arthur W. Frank, author of The Wounded Storyteller: Body, Illness, and Ethics
